And you can go to episode 73 of the Planet Reigate podcast if you're interested in that. this from Pilgrim Brewery this week.

They say the name Weald has been in Pilgrim's portfolio for a few decades. It's appeared as many different variants through the years, originally brewed to a 3.9%, slightly paler than our session pale ale, they say, and it's been reintroduced back in 2018 as a summer pale ale, and now...

The business over there, they've totally written the recipe, again, to complement the current trend of lower drinking strengths, which is interesting to know, isn't it? So what they've got now is a traditional session beer, a solid malt base alongside noble English hop varieties, and it's amber in colour.

And Weald, which is the name, that's what you've got to ask for, has, quote, a subtle sweetness from Maris Otter, I thought they were potatoes. Beg your pardon, Maris Piper. Maris Otter and Cara malts, but a clean and refreshing palate delivering a hint of roasted barley. The lead hop is Progress, a classic aroma variety that is grown across the weald.

Your traditional beer reimagined, they say, and it's available in the Pilgrim Taproom at just £3.90 a pint. £3.90 a pint. Well, it's worth going down there, isn't it, to have a sup of the new, reimagined, re-engineered wheeled pint from Pilgrim Brewery in Reigate. Talking about Reigate, we love Reigate this week. And a message from the administrators there.

Over the last 24 hours, they say, we've had to ban several people from the group for clear racism and bigotry and suspended a number of others. The quote from the admins, quote, let me be clear. If you want to be a racist, bigot, misogynist, narrow-minded fool... This is not the group for you. Anyone using the anonymous member commenting facility to be racist, etc. will be banned immediately.

Please remember, be kind and courteous. No hate speech or bullying. And so that was posted. And then a little bit while later, there was an edit by the admin on that particular post which said... I've just been called a snowflake in the comments below. And that poster is now also enjoying a seven day suspension for not complying with our rule of be kind and courteous. You know what?

They do an awful lot of work, don't the administrators of our various sites, whether it be We Love Reigate, We Love Red Hill or several of the others that you probably belong to. I know I do here as well. They have an unsung, unpaid job to kind of monitor everything that is going through, whether it be someone posting a business post on the wrong day or someone breaking one of the rules.

So you can understand that. You know, it's a nice place to be. And those two sites specifically, we love Reigate, we love Redhill. I know there are also ones for Merstham and for Hawley and other patches and some of them with similar names and so on. They're really nice spaces to be.

So it's really good that they are following their rules and coming down a bit hard on some people who seem keen to break them. On the show a year ago, we heard from local actor Caroline Quentin on how living in Reigate and Red Hill inspired her to garden. Yeah, did you know that Caroline Quentin grew up in our neck of the woods? If you want to hear that, episode 24 of the Planet Reigate podcast.
