Recycle your red poppies, paint them white, and wear them throughout the year.

I personally can't stand the stuff. I think I have been even more turned off by it because I have a friend who blindly swears by it whenever I recommend a beer.

I had a tequila beer at The Wunderbar the other night. Turned out from the label it was just one of Green Mans standard beers with a shot of tequila and some lime juice added.

As pointed out on facebook, silly muppet, Hashigo is great. And one of our own works there. Should make that the bar for next wellington drinks.
