1. Read the label
2. It is brown
3. it is sweet
4. it is my BABOTW

As I mentioned on the Beer of the Week thread two mingers for me this week,

Full Mash Mangelbrot (named after a Polish mathematician) and Blackfriars Porter, neither much cop but the Mangel-rot...

Never tried Milton so to be perverse I'll check them out if I can. I have sadly had Fuggle Bunny Oh Crumbs, a sweet yucky mess, a real stinker, never again etc.

Just to pre-warn those of us in Yorkshire this week, give this one a miss

Naylors Brewery "Martha's Chocolate Milk Stout"

Tastes like cheap drinking chocolate and it's rather nasty, put me off...

Would that be in The Village ? I enjoyed many fine pints of Landlord there when I lived in Hampshire.

Local (North Yorks) prices for Landlord are usually above average being about £3.25 in the...

I'm a bit on the fence with Landlord, I still enjoy a pint quite often.

I wouldn't place it anywhere near BOBOTW but have to admit I find it, or my taste buds, has changed, I now find it too...

Most odd, it was my BOTW w/e 7/9/14

Have we all been lucky lately, the last post was on 27th May.

This week it's (again from a usually reliable brewery) Partners Blonde, more diactyl than you can shake a stick at - foul. :sick:

Sadly from a usually reliable brewery Sonett 43 Bourbon Milk Stout, no taste of bourbon or lactose just the amateur mistake of overloading the beer with patent black malt to get it black and making...

Naw, it's rubbish see post #306 for my thoughts

Why would anyone create a beer that was so like Greene King IPA as to be indistinguishable from it? Well for some reason that's what Derby brewery have done with their Derby Triple Hop. Bloody awful...

Two this week that could be BABOTW on the grounds of a misguided recipe.

Hardknott Cool Fusion - a brewery noted for experimental beers and an uncompromising attitude to drinkers opinions from the...

Not sure I should be doing this as Ridgeside is usually such a fantastic, wonderful brewer but.....

Ridgeside Cascade, I expected the usual citrusy C hop flavours one usually gets but no it had...

I feel a right miserable old sod (yes unbelievably it's true) but two weeks in a row I've nominated a BABOTW, this week is a joint special brew for JDW from a Corfu brewery and Everards,

the...

Under the sourness was chocolate and coffee, but it wasn't an acetic acid sourness it was typical of too much patent black. I'll try a 1/2 next time I'm in Wakefield.

Now this is an odd one, it comes from Fernandes, usually a trustworthy brewer and it was Beer of the Festival at this years Leeds Beer Festival, however their Malt Shovel Mild is dreadfully sour - I...

Greene King's Morland Original - worse than their IPA?

OK. I took on the bottle in the cupboard after a trip round Richmond this lunchtime.......

Definiately too much carbonation in the bottled version but it is bottle conditioned so here goes, ...

I've only had it in bottles and it was fine and I would not call it sweet or watery. I've got a bottle in the cupboard at the moment so I'll try it again later on.

Now Black Sheep "All...

Yep no surprises for my nomination as I said just after I'd taken the first pint of the nasty liquid back.

Bloody awful beer of the decade (so far), worse than that Hilden stuff at a previous...

Now this is an odd one, my BABOTW is Roosters Oakey Cream, the odd thing being that I remembered having it before and it wasn't bad at all. This week it was foul, not off or anything just crap, so...

I've got one to avoid,

Millstone Old Git

fairly dreadful, appley and sourish but no not vinegar just p..s poor beer, had in the Dragon in Worcester so certainly not bad keeping to blame.

I had some on sunday as well in my local spoons and I thought it a fine beer, looks like yours was off TP

Easy choice this week Brass Monkey: Monkey Pooh, and it was. :sick:

Mr Foleys seems to have a BD Krap Kraft Keg quite often. I had my unlucky experiences at the usually reliable Pivni in York.
