Bishops Finger
There's probably [hopefully?] a missing apostrophe but the name actually has a quainter history than amusing those who sniggered when they first heard the word Bishopric.
I have though discovered something very unusual, it's so sharp and dry I can only describe this as a beer which makes you thirsty. I'm trapped in an Escher diagram...

...or another miracle of Japanese engineering. But why quibble, beer - bikes both magical fun givers. Thanks for the pointer on the other Bishop[']s - makes me want to go out and have a religiously themed drinking night. Hmmmm....where to start?

How underrated are monks - they preserved the written tradition in the West and mastered hand to hand combat in the East and still had time to make booze that has rarely been bettered in the industrial world.
The Belgian Trappist beers take their toll, I wouldn't be a long way short of getting to the Altar Wine. May have to stretch it for all of Lent.
Any particular favourite in the Trappists?

Yes there is and it's a good one. On the corner of King Street and Murray in town. I'd really recommend going the dinner option.
Belgian Beer Cafe and Belgian Cafe amongst othersOtherwise there's the local independent beer importer, the International Beer Shop. They've always got a solid range and have always got new stuff coming in to try. The owner's more than happy to have a chat about them too.
