Harveys Best Bitter

Don't get me wrong I'm not one of those CAMRA types (nothing wrong with them, just not me). However, on recent trips back to the UK it seems that the trip isn't complete without a drop of Lewes's finest best bitter.

A sign of old age, maturity, a broader palate, creeping nostalgia or rampant Alcoholism? Who cares?
