    No more proper beer for me this week, so BOTW is going to be Brightside Odin.

    Light & Hoppy and at 3.8% a great session beer for the warm weather. I had 3 in The Baum on Tuesday.

    A night in a McMullens pub was never going to yield a BOTW,so my mini crawl around Bow Street was the last chance ,and luckily Rooster's True Grit in The Williamson Tavern did sink very easily,so was followed by some more.Generally a good sign that the beer is a worthy BOTW.

    Quite a few beers drunk in Dorset this week:
    Palmers Copper Ale, Dorset Gold and 200
    Hall & Woodhouse Hopping Hare and Tanglefoot
    Otter Bitter and Ale
    Ringwood Best and Fortyniner
    Butcombe Bitter and Mendip Spring
    Jennings Cumberland Ale
    Wychwood Hobgoblin
    St. Austell Tribute, Trelawny and Proper Job
    Sharps Doombar
    Theakston XB
    Brains IPA
    Royal Standard DT3
    Yeovil Stargazer
    Sunny Republic Beach Blonde and Huna Red
    Harviestoun Bitter & Twisted
    Tetley's Hop & Glory
    However none of these surpassed either Red Squirrel Conservation Ale or Hammerpot Woodcote Bitter, both drunk today in the Roebuck on Richmond Hill (incidentally, the Roebuck now seems to have 6 ales on hand pump and another 3 on stillage - rather more than the selection of 4 ales that were on last time it was reviewed!)

    Not much time for the pub this week, though I managed to visit an al fresco bbq and micro beer fest at the Gun and Spitroast, Horsmonden on Jubilee Sunday.As it was drizzling I had a pint of Sun Top, a very pale golden Pale Ale from Old Dairy:citrus from the Amarillos, a bit of soul from the East Kent Goldings. The perfect beer for a perfect summer's day:it wasn't, so I had another for good luck.My BOTW.
