Here are three more entries to the Golden Pints – from my good mate Matt Stokes, John Clarke, regular blog reader and beer lover, and Will Briggs, who works at Beer Ritz and writes Ghost Drinker (http://ghostdrinker.blogspot.com/). My winners are here (http://www.pencilandspoon.com/2010/12/golden-pints-2010-my-winners.html) (although after a couple of bottles which I had over Christmas it might need updating...).
