Happy Nottingham cheese riot in 1766 day to those who celebrate. They may take our lives, but they'll never take out cheese wheels!

The liquid light Day Tripper on Keg is an excellent match for davincis Diavola pizza with Nduja Pepperoni and Jalapeno. The juiciness of the beer soaks up the heat really well.
