Beer of the Week (w/e 18th March 2012)

[Thuck Phat]

Runners and riders:

College Green Molly's Chocolate Stout (not on St Patrick's Day)
Holden's Purple Haze
Theakstons Paradise
Everards Original
Phipps NBC India Pale Ale
Oakham Bishops Farewell

The Chocolate Stout wasn't at all bad, the Original as consistent as ever and the Bishops absolutely top quality but BOTW was Holden's Purple Haze, a light and quaffable session ale.

The 'spoons festival has thrown up some interesting ales and my BOTW is Titanic Nine Tenth's Below ,really outstanding in The Hamilton Hall,Liverpool Street and a fair reward for just missing my train.
