A small but very tasty list,
Flowerpots Perridge Pale
Oakham OPA
Red Cat Mosaic Pale
Potbelly A Pigging IPA
Three Brothers Thai IPA
All cracking beers but going with Red Cat Mosaic Pale in top form in the top pub, The Wonston Arms.
East Sussex
Tonbridge-Golden Rule 3.5%abv.Earthy,hazy,floral,spicy.
Holler-Bro-Peep 4.2%abv. A rye red ale.Not my favourite style.Dry-biscuity,spicy.
Not a great deal in it,but my BOTW is Golden Rule.
A week much enhanced by the two great pubs near Derby Station :-
Brunswick Triple Hop 4.0%
Castle Rock Snowhite 4.1%
Truman's Blindspot 4.3%
Portobello Home Turf Pale 4.3%
Castle Rock Computer World 4.3%
Southwark Bermodnsey Best 4.4%
North Riding NZ Pale 4.5%
Mordue Workie Ticket 4.5%
ELB Nightwatchma 4.5%
Brunswick Rocket 4.7%
ELB Cowcatcher 4.8%
Enefield Iron Brew 4.8%
Castle Rock Mango Milkshake (keg) 5.2%
Marston's Old Empire 5.7%
Wantsum Overlord 6.0%
Brunswick Black Sabbath 6.0%
Bad Seed Storm Signal 6.0%
I'm going for the Castle Rock Computer World. This brewery has been around a long time and are noted for their old school beers. If I had tasted this one blind I would have guessed it to be a Salopian beer making it a change in direction for them. It was a discounted £3.00 in their Derby Alexandra. The Brunsiwick Rocket is a close second.
BOTW Castle Rock Computer World
Arbor - Shangri-la can
One or two crackers this week:
TT Landlord*
Vale Gravitas*
Marstons Old Empire IPA*
Oakham Bishops Farewell*
Blackpit Loosehead
All starred went down extremely well with BOTW going to Vale Gravitas in fine form at the Vale owned Chequers.
Chieftain Ipa, in Middlesbrough's The Chairman.
Some real quality on the southern Grand Union ,plus Potters Bar.
Timothy Taylor -- Landlord *
Vale -- Gravitas * (3PT)
Marston's -- Old Empire * (3PT x2)
New River -- Twin Spring
Truman -- Runner
The Gravitas was wonderful but BOTW goes to Marston's Old Empire ,on top form and taken in quantity in The Boat Inn,not for the first time.
Next week a Craft Beer Co. session but not much else planned.
Siren Craft Brew's Undercurrent.
Seems good enough.
Nice beer.Quote:

Beer of the Week for me would be Midtown by Beatnikz Republic, a 4.9% porter on cask at Pie & Ale. Lovely stuff.
Fixed Wheel - King Kelly 4.3% in this excellent micro Wheelie Thirsty this stout was one of the best I've ever tasted. In fact this place was very difficult to leave, as the owner was a good chat and all of the beers excellent.
Wasn't going to bother this week but Realalerob remindeded me of a beer that has become a favourite recently
Beatnikz -midtown brown lovely porter.excellent brewer
It wasn't that long ago that you didn't see much of the Beatnikz Republic beers, even around Manchester. Out of curiosity, how far away from home had it travelled when you had it?Quote:
