Tanya's Courage Trust Ale


A slightly different blog today, I saw this on ebay and thought, ‘I know I will buy something interesting and help a charity at the same time’. What I had today was the last ever bottle of an ale brewed specially for Tanya’s Courage Trust by Keltek Brewery in Redruth Cornwall.

Tanya’s Courage Trust is a cancer charity helping young people with cancer in Cornwall and the Isle’s of Scilly, I know how horrific cancer in young people can be and any causes such as this should be supported and encouraged. Please go to http://www.tanyascourage.org.uk/ for more information.

To the ale itself (pictured below in my Wandsworth Halloween festival glass from 2011), I’m not going to be too harsh on it as I’ve no idea how it has been stored and the Keltek Brewery has an excellent reputation, but it wasn’t great, very very smoky and a bit of a sour taste.


But I’m pleased that I bought it and if one person clicks the link in this blog and makes a donation then that’s the important thing, and even if no one does then no one else bid for it so the charity is up none the less. I'll raise my glass to that.
