Re Neck Oil, well Bill, it's another one that may polarise opinion. That brewery was founded by Robert Plant's son ( yes, that Robert Plant ) and was initially welcomed as a microbrewery

Yeah I get that, it was a fave for a while, same as brewdog, but now sadly hollow shells of their former selves. Locally they have Wainwright's which will do until I get to microbus in town or the boathouse in Wylam.

Neck oil is in loads of pubs round here but I can’t stomach it 🤮

mind you I won’t drink fosters or Budweiser either. A nice dark or amber ale, stout, mild, old ale or decent quality cold lager in the summer goes down a treat 👍

Bar oil I use Gator or Rotatech

I haven’t bought chain oil for about 4 years.  The local kebab shop has high end rapeseed oil.

 

He gives it away to a mate of mine who I work with.  He triple filters it and then siphons it off into cans.

 

Works really well and isn’t too thick to hamper the filling process here in the Norwegian winter.  It also doesn’t run into water consistency in the hot summer days.

 

Saws don’t get too gunked up and haven’t had a problem oiling in the years I have been using it.

Only problem he has is he has too much of it.  We have been sharing it around with the few companies we work with.

 

He has so much now he is selling it by the 100l load to local firewood processors.
