May Day

May Day, the time of year we remember our martyred dead and start looking for pints of mild. I'm not much of a mild drinker, as I generally prefer bitter, but May seems as good a time as any to seek out a pint.

For many years CAMRA have promoted mild during May and, like just about everything CAMRA does, it seems to get some of my fellow beer nerds all het up. But as someone who doesn't normally drink mild I'm quite happy to have something encouraging me to have a drop. Now all I need to do is find some!
