    Unless there's a last minute challenger its going to be Dark star Victorian Ruby Mild.

    As I suspected ,a last minute change of beer has stole the day. Dark Star Hophead, possibly my favorite beer of all time has won it for me this week.

    Quieter week after last weeks excess

    Blue Bee - Nectar Pale
    Empire - Fastnet
    Rudgate - Nordic Storm
    Wentworth - Chocolate Chilli Stout
    Rowton - Starlight
    Harbour - Amber
    Three Tuns - Jubilation

    BOTW Rudgate - Nordic Storm

    The Wentworth Choc chilli stout was a very good stout but had way to much chilli which killed the flavour like having a way too hot curry

    From these 4:
    Oakham Bishops Farewell and Inferno
    Marstons Old Empire IPA
    Purity Mad Goose

    All these were good but BOTW is Oakham Inferno.

    The Nags Head had Windsor & Eton Kohinoor on during the Jubilee music quiz (Gilbey played a song from each year of the 50 on the pub's piano - our team Aztec CAMRA came 2nd ) so that's this week's easy winner. At least four pints went down amongst others...

    A poor week on the beer front,with another short visit to Bateman's country where XB seems to crop up just about everywhere.As a result BOTW was Sharp's Doom Bar,I know that's a pretty ordinary choice,but it was the best I could find.Consumed in The Mall,Woodhall Spa.
