Polar Eclipse (Beartown)

Name: Polar Eclipse
Label: "Made in Cheshire"
Brewery: Beartown Brewery
ABV: 4.8%

Rating: Rich creamy smooth stout with light hoppy notes and a dry bitter finish. Did you know that there are no polar bears in the South Pole? It's called the Antarctic because "arctic" is foreign for "bear" and the "ant" bit of the word means "anti" or "no / non" so overall it means "no bears" or something. Genius.

Game: Finally finished Oblivion! It took about 60 hours - I probably could have done a degree or created a work of art in that sort of time.  Never mind eh?  Anyway, what a superb game (9/10 by the way), it's certainly whetted the dungeon crawling appetite for Skyrim later on in the year or next year or whenever the heck it comes out. For now though it's time to start on the Shivering Isles expansion pack and tie up some loose ends on a couple of outstanding side missions if I can be arsed.

Kodiak Gold (Beartown)

Name: Kodiak Gold
Label: "Straw coloured well balanced and very drinkable"
Brewery: Beartown Brewery
ABV: 4.0%

Rating: Apparently Congleton was famous for bear baiting which took place at the fairs within the town.  In 1632 the bear warden had insufficient funds to purchase a bear, so to avoid the inevitable lynching it was decided to buy a bear with money that had been put aside to buy a new Bible for the town hall.  The brewery is proud to support Animals Asia Foundation's - Moon Bear Rescue.

Game: Just being playing Oblivion and on and on and on. It appears to be never ending. That is all. 9 out of 10

Keltek Gold (Keltek Brewery)

Name: Keltek Gold
Label: "The Keltek Brewery is a multi-award winning Brewery situated in Redruth, Cornwall"
Brewery: Keltek Brewery
ABV: 3.8%

Rating: "Traditionally brewed with hops and barley, this light golden ale is pale and fruity with a citrus bias." I'd like to go to Cornwall on holiday again, that's if it's ok with the Cornish people of course as I get the impression they don't particularly approve.

Game: I finally got Oblivion by the way. After all these years I've finally got round to getting it and it seems to be a rather large game.  The graphics look a little dated but that's a minor issue. The hours fly by when you play this game, it literally eats time. Elder Scrolls IV: The Eater of Time it should have been called.
