A lot going on behind the scenes this week, so limited imbibition, but did manage to break into a mixed 12-bottle case from Blue Monkey that had been sitting around for a month or so, plus a couple...

I'm in, but looks like the 15th July would be the best bet for me due to work cover being required on the 29th. The missus goes in for an op this Monday, so June is a write-off until she's recovered...

"shaggie jaggie" at Hitchin's Millstream with some additional capitalisation thrown in just to prove the point.

Agree with those that have replied so far; one of the best 'London' lists I've seen, and 19/21 for me, with only the Harwood Arms and Skehan's letting the side down.

The official site of the Dudley Arms is, like the pub, dead.

The old Oxbrew link for this Witney micro can go. I've added the new one. Ta!

Just received an e-mail from the excellent Beercraft of Bath which lists, among other things, their 'New Beers in this Week'. I think Brew York's beer names have been mentioned elsewhere in this...

Swindon's Hop Inn. I could have had a happy couple of hours working my way through the cask lines.

Hemel's Bull Rodizio is now Villas Brazil..

Just the Welly for me. Brum isn't a city I've explored pub-wise, despite living 10 mins away from the London-Birmingham Chiltern Line.

Just the one.

Shame. I remember their Brickworks Bitter being a solid session ale and a Chili Stout which (to me) was one of those "it shouldn't work, but it does" beers.

The Plough is now La Table d'Alix at the Plough, however, WhatPub suggest that it is now a restaurant and you are unable to buy a drink without also purchasing a meal.

Two Tribes Metroland (3.8%) (c)
Thornbridge Brother Rabbit (4.0%)

One that always springs to mind, although maybe niche, is Yubberton's Goldie which has the tagline "Timeless Pale Ale".

Eagle Young's London Original (3.7%)
Slaughterhouse Saddleback (3.8%)*
