00:00  Intro and Opening

06:45  State of Beer

In which our barmaid Kaz, selects one of the United States for us to find and taste a beer from the state.  This week, the 12th state, North Carolina, and we try Cottonwood Almond Stout from the Carolina Beer Company.  Alas, we don’t rate our first US beer very highly!

18:00  British Pub Food Icons - Cheddar Cheese

We begin the first in our series in which we take a look at some of the great menu items here at the pub.   There’s nothing like a great piece of Cheddar Cheese, and USBrit gets Lingo’s tastebuds working on some traditional Cheddar, and some Oak-Smoked Cheddar.  All of these items are available from iGourmet.com (not our sponsor, just a great place to get foods!)
