Revenge is best served cold.....

This afternoon Andy G and I headed off to Lyme Regis and the Town Mill Brewery. As it's lifeboat week we had some trouble finding a parking space. Eventually we parked and before heading of to the brewery we called into the Volunteer for a pint. The choices weren't brilliant but we both went for a Sharp's Own at 4.4% which was a refreshing ale with a rich brown colour and a caramel sweetness.
We then headed off to the the Town Mill Brewery.
The brewery is situated in the old Mill buildings and shares its space with Bakery's and craft shops so is one of the smallest I've ever visited with its 5 barrel plant. It was quite busy, with at least three people in the shop so Andy and I had a quick look around and the decided to go to one of the pubs in the town that sold their beer, The Harbour Inn.
We walked down to the front and as we had forgotten it was lifeboat week were amazed by how many people were on the promenade. We soon realised that they were all watching an aerial display by the RAF parachute team.
We arrived at the Harbour only to see that there were no Town Mill beers on so we had an Otter 'Bitter' and went back to the Brewery.
We were the only ones there now so we both ordered a four pint take out of their Revenge at 5.3%. Their advertising says's its best served cold but sitting here now waiting for the Olympic Opening Ceremony to start I don't agree. Its best served at room temperature.
