[hondo]

no more beer this week so Traditional Scottish Ales Brewing Co( Tsa Brewing co) - Gold Bullion

[Thuck Phat]

A small but high quality selection this week all sampled at The Merchants beer festival:
Blue Monkey Ape Ale
Brentwood Clockwork Orange
Crouch Vale Yakima Gold
Oakham Untouchable IPA, Bishops Farewell
Marble Ginger

All of these were very good although the Ginger was a touch hazy. A tough decision given how good the Untouchable IPA was but at 9% I didn't manage the obligatory 3 pints. I did though manage 3 of Blue Monkey's Ape Ale without it touching the sides so that is BOTW.

[Real Ale Ray]

After visiting the Norwich Beer Fest and taking in a good few pubs around Norwich this week, my beer tasting list and cider tasting list is quite substantial.
BOTW Grain Brewery Porter 5% and my cider of the week, or should I say COTW Apple Cottage Filthy Tramp Juice 6.7%.

[Bucking Fastard]

No contest this week,as previously mentioned BOTW for me Blue Monkey Ape Ale.Deep joy.

Faulty gearbox fixed,the Anker Valley and Cov next up.
