From the sublime in the East Midlands to the ridiculous in North London with BOTW going to Blue Monkey Chocolate Coconut MILD first among equals in a great line up at The Organ Grinder.It sounds all wrong,and the coconut was pronounced but the classic mild dryness was there and at 4% in packed some flavours in perfect nick.
Next week much more subdued,may tick off more heritage in North London.
Some similarities to Mr F above:

Some excellent beers this week and both the Dead Man's Fist, a smoked porter, and the Chocolate Coconut Mild were unusual and superb.
BOTW has to be Blue Monkey Jubilape. A 5.9% Earl Grey IPA with distinctive bergamot but beautifully balanced and delicious. Doubt I'll find a Jubilee beer as good.
An absolutely superb pint of Bewdley Brewery - Worcestershire Way in The Black Boy
