Pint Sized

Shakespeare - a very astute man and a West Midlander to boot - once said of alcohol that it “increaseth the appetite but taketh away the ability”.*

A less mature review than myself would take this opportunity to make a
"cocks" joke here. But I'm going to rise above the opportunity (tempting
though it is) so readers of all ages can enjoy this review, assuming it
makes it through your internet filth filter.

Well, this blogger has been celebrating the relaunch of the brand spanking new Birmingham Post website with a pint or two of ale (naturally).
The Post is a venerable Midland institution with a history stretching back into the Victoria era. As, it appears, is the Beacon.
