'Barm' and worse 'Barmcake' are the worst abominations in terms of describing bread. When I first moved to Manchester, I was most aggrieved to be handed a pathetically small, dry, entirely plain and suspiciously Asda multipack-sourced plain bread roll (not even with any butter FFS), having been offered - and ordered - a "barmcake".

I find coffee porters are ok until you get to about half-way down the pint, when they outstay their welcome. See also, ginger infused beers. |

Vaguely interesting: Saltaire Brewery do a beer called Cascade. Last year, i think it was, your linear time confuses me, they casked a load up in wooden barrels, rather than the normal ones. Its taste was different. It was much more rounded. Lovely, it was. |
