Leaving the Bhurtpore behind when emigrating from S Cheshire to the 
dizzy depths of Stockport is something i found quite hard to cope with. 
Not least when the only brew for miles around is Robinsons Unicorn which 
isn't usually served very well.

Missed the Bhurtpore festie last July which was a shame as it's usually 
pretty good.
