Moorhouses - Pendle Witches Brew
A modest selection this week, I wish I had gone for beers I hadn't tried before in some cases :-
Oakham JHB 3.8%
Hook Norton Old Hooky 4.6%
Brodie's Old Street Pale Ale 5.0%
Triple fff Jabberwocky Black IPA 5.0%
Hawkshead Cumbrian 5 Hop IPA 5.0%
Shepherd Neame Bishop's Finger 5.0%
Hopcraft Mosaic Pale 5.2%
Thornbridge Jaipur IPA 5.9%
Adnams / Sixpoint Bengali Tiger 6.4%
The condition of some of these beers left something to be desired but the two outstanding ones were the Bengali Tiger and the Jabberwocky.
The Jabberwocky wins it served in immaculate condition for £2.45 in the Walton on Thames Spoons The Regent. The Black IPA is becoming my favourite beer style.
BOTW Triple fff Jabberwocky Black IPA

pressure drop-wu gang chops the wood (keg)was weird but nicely weird
tap east -jim Wilson bitter was brown and twiggy but again tasty
.but the best was
east London -so solid brew 5.5
Essex:Quiet
Mighty Oak-IPA 3.5% abv.Decent old school (not "Modern") session strength IPA. Initial sweetness-long spicy hop finish.
Three Bs-Stokers Slake MILD 3.6%abv. Jet black MILD. Hoppy, with too much roastiness for my taste.
My BOTW-Mighty Oak IPA
