If so, Park Street, of course, being the old Barclay Perkins brewery, which was used as a bottling store for the Tower Bridge brewery at that time IIRC, it looks as if they vatted it for a while at the Park Street premises before carrying out bottling there.<br /><br />I've still got a bottle of the 1975 CIRS, I believe (it's 3,400 miles away right now) so I'll try to remember to check for Brett when I get back and open it.Martyn Cornellhttp://zythophile.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2558050635605413616.post-1086635434403432862011-05-18T08:30:48.622+01:002011-05-18T08:30:48.622+01:00Very interesting post.
