Certainly the best quality kept beer of the week was the half of Harveys Sussex Best taken unexpectedly in The Black Prince (https://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/24065/), not my beer style of choice but so good I was compelled to score it NBSS 4.5 ( is there any real discernable difference between 4.5 and 5 ?). However earlier in the week and much more my particular bag was Iron Pier Joined At The Hop Mosaic & Ernest also in bang on condition on cask in The Ten Tun Tap House (https://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/88988/) and this weeks BOTW.

Another late entry:

Mr Winters Peach Tea
Barsham Golden Close IPA*
Adnams Ghost Ship*
Brancaster Best*
Brancaster Oystercatcher*

All starred were good but I'll ring the changes and make BOTW Brancaster Best. A session ale with a hint of citrus. Not sure if it deserves the Best title at 3.8% but it hit the thirst on a hot day.
