haha yea well, if I lived over there I'm sure I'd be brewing a few english ales too! I am brewing quite a few english style beers as well though, I'm especially into the 19th century english beer styles like stouts, milds, porters, pale ales and what not. I do like american hops though. And I love a bit of american attitude in my beer!
What kind of english beers are your favourite to drink/brew btw? Do you get any good commercial examples?

definitely love a good ESB/best bitter but it's hard to find a good one sometimes. I've got a nice smoked porter sitting in my carboy right now.

Sometimes I just sit and stare at my airlock when it's bubbling....like a creepy creeper.
