Nowt wrong with the pies themselves, but the way they are kept is a different matter. Leaving them for an hour or so on a heated tray overcooks the pastry on the bottom making it hard and unpalatable.
If you get them early enough they are not bad, obviously not a patch on Galloways but I suspect if we were to get Galloways in they would be ruined in much the same way. Very much like many a pint I have had, if it is kept as the brewers recommend most are decent, but if the landlord doesn't look after it and clean his lines regularly it tastes shit.
Lots of people used to slag Greenalls bitter off, but having drunk it in the Saracens Head ( the brewery tap) opposite the old brewery, I can honestly say it was a lovely brew. I would also say the same with the old Higsons brew and Holt's as both were considered difficult to keep, but if kept right were great pints.
