It is an honour and pleasure to take over the Editorship of
Lunesdale Drinker. I was surprised when, on an otherwise uneventful
evening a few weeks ago, Julian Holt, ther previous editor, called
me round to his house and said he wanted to put the organ into my
hands. After weighing it up and turning it over for a while, I
decided I would be happy to accept the best offer I had had for
several minutes. For guiding this journal to the eminence it now
enjoys, many thanks Julian.
Over the past month or so you may have seen certain CAMRA
members, particularly in the Morecambe area, looking somewhat
harassed and ageing rather quickly. Such exertions paid off
superbly in the Second Morecambe Beer Festival, which, amidst the
beautiful surroundings of the Winter Gardens, served over 4,300
pints of beer and cider. The many scores of people who gave up
their time deserve our thanks. George Palmers report on the event
is in this
quarters magazine, but more reports would be most welcome.
Forthcoming local pub-based beer festivals include the one at
the Woodlands in Silverdale in October followed by the excellent
one year-old Snug at Carnforth Station a month later--full details
are in the Diary Dates section. Just remember to face away from the
Bridget Riley-inspired wallpaper once you order your third pint in
the Woodlands. I fi nd that it can start oscillating and speaking
to me in a way I last experienced in 1983 when I mixed up my
chanterelle mushrooms for something else, and had to stop and stare
at a daisy for fi ve hours.
We always need more contributions and information, and I look
forward to hearing from as many of you as possible in the months
ahead.

Unfortunately Tom Sherlock has had to stand down as chairman and
I have been appointed in his place by the branch committee. So
thank you Tom and best wishes for your move and new job.
Having worked behind the bar at the Morecambe Beer Festival at
some time during every session I feel well qualified to say what a
very successful festival it was this year. Congratulations to
George Palmer and everyone who contributed to this event.
Attendance was up on last year, some beers sold out, and we had the
2013 Champion Beer of Britain available until it quite rightly sold
out. Im looking forward to next year already.
It was good to learn that twenty one people signed up for Camra
membership at the festival. For those of you who are in the
Lunesdale branch area, welcome, I would be very pleased to see you
at our branch meetings and hope you will think
of becoming active branch members. There are over 450 members in
the Lunesdale branch and we need an active branch membership to
attend meetings, become involved with campaigns and to help with
the organization and running of the 2014 Morecambe Beer
Festival.
Finally a little about myself. When I moved into the area I had
no intention of becoming chairman of the branch. I was happy to
serve on the branch committee, but had no real understanding of how
Camra worked at branch level although I have been a member for a
number of years. So it will be a steep learning curve for me,
having become chairman more by accident than design, but I will do
everything I can to make sure the Lunesdale branch runs smoothly
for the benefit of all the members.

Glasson Dock is a pleasant five mile walk or cycle along the old
railway track from Lancaster, which runs along the banks of the
Lune. It can also be reached in twenty minutes on the 89 bus (which
continues to Knott End and occasionally Fleetwood).
The Dalton Arms, in Ten Row, is a Thwaites pub since 1963 dating
back to c1780 when Glasson Dock was built. It reopened in May 2013
by Debbie Cann and Mum Sue.
Its open all day Wednesday to Sunday and Tuesday from 4pm, with
home-cooked food available Wednesday-Saturday 12-2 & 5-8 and
Sundays 12-8. Theres a quiz on Tuesday evening, and folk music on
Wednesdays with a dance night every second Saturday. Dogs--who
along with drinkers, may like the real coal fire in winter--are
welcome, and there is free wi-fi. Thwaites Original, Bomber, and
Wainwright are on the bar.
The other pub in the village, The Victoria, dates from 1841 and
has been a Mitchells pub since 1878. Landlady Jodie Braithwaite,
whose parents ran the pub twenty years ago, took over recently and
opens the pub all normal hours in summer, with evening opening only
on Tuesdays
and Wednesdays in the winter. Food is available every day except
Wednesday, at lunchtimes and evenings until 8pm. Thursdays are quiz
nights and a folk music session is held on Mondays. The pub shows
Sky Sport and has the usual pub games. This pub also welcomes dogs
(and cats!) and has free wifi. Regular beers, are Beacon &
Coniston Blue Bird, plus usually two guests, which were Kirkby
Lonsdale Tiffin Gold & York El Dorado on my visit on 23rd
June.
Both these pubs are worth a visit. There used to be a third pub
in Glasson Dock dating back to c1780. It operated under various
names including The Pier, The Grapes, (and various combinations
thereof) and finally The Caribou, which Thwaites ran until its
closure in 1983.
As this was one of my Bus, Hike & Pint Expeditions, I
continued back along the old railway line towards Conder Green and
made a brief stop at the Stork and the Mill, before returning along
the Lancaster Canal towards Galgate and the bus to Lancaster
(hourly on Sundays and half hourly during the week, day times).

We caught the 1205 bus from Lancaster for an easy level walk
over farm land. We began at the Brockholes Arms, but
there was no real ale so we made a quick exit. We then followed
the towpath to the Kenlis Arms at Barnacre, adjacent to the old
Garstang & Catterall railway station where Dartmoor IPA and OSB
Hopscotch were on offer.
Back on the canal towpath we walked to the Church Inn. The pub
has closed, but has been bought - although at the moment the
identity of the buyer is unknown. We had a Theakstons Lightfoot,
whilst sunbathing in the beer garden.
Continuing walking to Garstang, Peter & Rob are the new
managers at the Eagle & Child. The pub seems the same as ever,
but Hobgoblin was the only real ale available.
There was nothing on at the Kings Arms, so we set off to the The
Crown, which
had Thwaites Original & Wainwright on. Its a tidy pub, but
we were surrounded on all sides by TVs.
At the Wheatsheaf, the new landlady Sandra OBrien is still
sorting things out at the pub. The old Scottish and Newcastle range
was on offer, so we tried the Caledonian XPA.
Passing the closed Bell & Bottle (the former Farmers Arms)
to the ThOwd Tithebarn, Mole Tap (Moles Brewery) was sampled.
We finished our Garstang pub crawl with a visit to the Royal
Oak, where the usual Robinsons range was available. We tried the
seasonal Dizzy Dark Side, which Martin rated as the best beer of
the day, before falling onto the 1719 bus to Lancaster.

A PUB CELLARA guide to what goes on...
This is a guide to the mechanics of cask ale treatment in the
pub.Clearing
Beer is fined at the brewery, This clears the beer, but those
inconsiderate draymen shake it all up so its cloudy when you it get
to the cellar. The beer should normally re-settle in 12 to 24
hours.
However, the beer will only re-settle about five times, after
five times you may have problems. Before you get it, it may have
re-settled up to three or four times, especially if its come
through a chain of agents, so its best not to shake it up unless
you have to.
Carbon Dioxide Content
There have been many scientific papers written on foam stability
in beers, thats head retention to us mere mortals. It depends on a
lot of things, ingredients, brewing methods, etc.. One of the
things that the cellarman controls is the carbon dioxide content.
Too much carbon dioxide in the beer and youll get a good head on
your beer, which will collapse and disappear in a short time, too
little carbon dioxide and you wont get a good head in the first
place.
Carbon dioxide is soluble in beer. If you increase the pressure,
more carbon dioxide will dissolve. If you lower the temperature
more carbon dioxide will dissolve. You will get about the right
amount of carbon dioxide dissolved if you
have your beer at atmospheric pressure and at cellar temperature
(about 12 to 14 degrees C).
The Mechanics Of It AllSo the cask, makes its way to the
cellar and is put on the stillage. It is left for 24 hours or so
when it will be at about cellar temperature. This also gives it
time to settle.
Some breweries condition the beer in tanks at the brewery, and
it leaves the brewery with the right amount of carbon dioxide in
the beer and very little yeast. These beers can be vented, and
served after a few hours. Unfortunately breweries dont like
advertising that they brewery condition their beers, so you dont
know if you can serve them quickly or not.
Other breweries condition the beer in the cask. This involves
leaving a bit of sugar in the beer at the end of fermentation and
letting a secondary fermentation happen in the cask. This secondary
fermentation is a bit hard to control and you usually end up with
too much carbon dioxide in the beer and the casks are under a bit
of pressure. What this means is that you have to vent the casks for
two or three days to let the excess carbon dioxide escape from the
beer, which it does quite slowly.
Hope that helps explain it.Cheers.

The Good Beer Guide 2014 was published on 12 September.
Indispensable for all beer-lovers who travel at all within the UK,
it can be bought from all the usual booksellers, and also at CAMRA
branch meetings at a special members price of 10 (see Dates for
your Diary).
For a number of years, people have been asking why CAMRA as the
UKs largest and most infl uential pub-going consumer organisation
doesnt have its own online pub guide. Well now it does. September
also sees the launch of WhatPub.com. The big difference from the
Good Beer Guide is that whereas the GBG lists about 10% of real ale
pubs, the intention is for WhatPub to list all of them. WhatPub
currently provides details of 35,800 pubs. This is far more than
any other online pub guide! For over 21,000 of those pubs, branches
have provided full details, including beer details, opening hours,
a description of the pub, and features and facilities. Again, this
is far more comprehensive than any other online pub guides, many of
which provide little more than basic details like address and phone
number. Curiously, many websites run by pubs themselves dont
give
opening times, and a surprising number fail to mention beer at
all. Based on the current rate of progress, branches will have
surveyed and provided full details for 25,000 pubs by the end of
the year. This is an unprecedented achievement, all the surveying
being done by volunteer effort, as for the Good Beer Guide. We dont
even get expenses for this activity.
This area has been particularly well-surveyed, the only major
gap being the Lancaster University bars which we cant survey until
term starts. Needless to say, no such large collection of facts is
ever without a few errors; also, some details go out of date pretty
rapidly. Send any updates or corrections to our pubs offi cer,
Lawrence Bland, 27 Cleveleys Avenue, Lancaster, LA1 5HB, or email
[email protected].
Improvements to the website are constantly being added, and new
facts gathered. A mobile version of the site should be online by
the time you read this. Even if youre not planning on going
anywhere new soon, why not give it a look? A very easy url just
whatpub.com. Let us know what you think by leaving us some
feedback. All feedback, whether positive or negative, is always
welcome and very much appreciated, so please do get in touch.

BREWERY & PUB NEWS
Your local update on all things ale
First my apologies from the last issue: The Bath at Morecambe
has no connection with the Pub in Lancaster.
The Dragons Head (Whittington) has been sold. It is currently
closed for refurbishment and improvement. It should re-open in time
for Christmas, in the hands of an experienced licensee who has won
awards from another CAMRA branch. Definitely one to watch.
The Masons Arms (Ingleton) has been transformed. The bar has
been re-sited and it has a new name: the Old Brewery Inn. Although
when I last saw it it still had the old Thwaites signs from years
ago, inside it is very different. It is clearly trying to move
upmarket. It is currently selling four beers from Settle Brewery,
including those under the name of Nine Standards. (The Nine
Standards brewery closed in July with production and brewer
tranferred to Settle.) All these businesses belong to the same
man.
The Queens (Morecambe) has come through its extensive
re-painting. Its being run by the licensee of the Pier down the
road. It has three handpumps, but exactly when you could expect to
find any cask ale is rather uncertain. (There is a growing number
of Morecambe pubs like that).
Theres only one addition to the list of pubs closed and waiting
for something to turn up: the Royal Oak (Hornby). There are two you
can definitely write off, however: the Victoria (Morecambe) and the
Duke of Lancaster (Lancaster), both of which are being converted to
flats.
The Borough Brewery in Lancaster is still experimenting with
various brews,
which have appeared from time to time on the bar of the Borough.
They should have an official launch soon.
Another brewery in gestation is the Iron Junction brewery in
Carnforth. They have also been trying experimental brews, but none
so far as I know have yet reached the public.

THE SHIP DROPS ANCHOR
It must be a surreal yet satisfying occurrence when a ship drops
anchor after a long voyage. The joy at the prospect of walking on
dry land after months of treading the decks, the endless vista and
aroma of the sea soon to be replaced by buildings, hills and
fields, each emitting their own sounds and smells. Though Ive never
been a sailor, I can have some appreciation of what a voyage ending
must feel like.
Why you ask? The good ship Morecambe Beer Festival has just
about completed its second voyage, and I am sure that I can hear
the rattle of the chain as its anchor splashes into Morecambe
Bay.
You may think the analogy of a ships voyage and a beer festival
is a little strange, yet if you had taken the expedition that the
organising committee and myself have made, you would see the
relevance. Over the course of a year we have laid down provisions,
checked the engines, caulked the hull and loaded the cargo. The
crew were assembled - the engineers, quartermasters, crewmen and
porters all willing volunteers (no press ganging on this vessel).
Finally, after almost a year in the planning and preparing, the
sails were hoisted and the anchor weighed as wave after wave of the
drinking public rolled through the doors of the Winter Gardens.
The voyage lasted a mere three days. In that short time the crew
welcomed close to a thousand passengers aboard and served them with
over three thousand five hundred pints of grog. A feat to be proud
of, Im sure youll agree.
Now, with not a trace of our journey left at the Winter Gardens
and with the
crew resting their sea legs, the charts are being studied and
the course set for next years even grander sailing.
I would like to personally thank every member of the committee,
all the volunteers, suppliers and customers who made the journey so
satisfying. We were ably assisted by our Lunesdale Brewers,
Morecambe Bay Wines, other CAMRA branches, local pubs
and...EVERYONE ELSE.
So until next years sailing, avast me hearties. May the winds
fill your sails and the weather be fair.
