I had a conversation with one of our green fingered locals and she told me that growers often have surplus produce. I said we would take any excess fruit and veg. So; our latest batch of vegetable bourginon is made with courgettes grown by Carol Brack. We will be donating to Alston Food Bank in "payment" for donated fruit and veg.

Just noticed the 20 year anniversary logo on the Allendale Brewery pump clip. Can it really be 20 years ago that Tom brought round samples of the first brew, and we sat in our bar agreeing to take a couple of shiny new firkins. If I remember right, that b**r was, or became Curlew's Return.

Curlew will be coming shortly: in the meantime Come and try our current line up. Open today, and every day (except Christmas!) from 12.

We have a new range of malt whiskies to add to the existing top shelf. These are 100 proof (57% abv) and range from the peaty (Staoisha) to the smoother Speyside styles.

They can be taken neat, or with water or over ice. Being unchillfiltered, cold water and ice can bring a haziness to the drink, matched by the laziness in your head of the strong liquor.

Come on down and give them a try. Good with a half of cask ale.

We also commit to no automatic service charge. If you like what we do, we appreciate your gratitude, but don't see it a as a given right.

Over the years, Helen has had a small but loyal following for her home-made scones. Whilst she's been poorly, we've not had any on offer. So I've been to Helen's Scone School, and with the help of our dog-eared BeRo book, I've made a batch to start us off again. Cheese or Fruit, which would you choose?
