    Reasonable week.

    Fullers -- ESB
    St Peters -- Honey Porter
    St Peters -- Organic Best Bitter *
    St Peters -- Ruby Red Ale *
    St Peters -- Fruit Beer (Grapefruit) * 3PT
    Meantime -- London Pale Ale (keg)
    White Park -- Moonshine


    BOTW goes to St Peters Fruit Beer (Grapefruit) which was on great form in The Jerusalem Tavern and passed the three pint test with ease.

    After a minor refurb which took much longer than expected,boating starts again next week with a visit to Congleton,which looks excellent on the ale front.

    A good week for me apart from having to endure a pint of Doom Bore which was sweet and extremely boring.


    Oakham JHB 3.8%
    Sharp's Doom Bore 4.0%
    Brewster's Hoptical Illusion 4.0%
    Elgood's Golden Newt 4.1%
    Ramsbury Ramsberry 4.2%
    Woodforde's Norfolk Champion 4.2%
    Hop Stuff Centennial Pale 4.2%
    Everard's Schlafly Pale Ale 4.4%
    Twickenham Summer Sun 4.4%*
    Wild Card Jack Of Clubs 4.5%
    Brew Buddies Single Hop Mosaic Pale 4.5%
    Redemption Hopspur 4.5%
    Adnam's Topaz Gold 4.5%
    Loddon Green Bullet 4.6%*
    Bexley Black Prince Porter 4.6%*
    Fat Cat Cougar 4.7%
    Dark Star American Pale Ale 4.7%
    Itchen Valley Pure Gold 4.8%*
    Brewster's Artemis 4.8%
    Hackney Raspberry Wheat (Keykeg) 5.0%
    Wild Card Queen Of Diamonds IPA 5.0%*
    Kelham Island Pale Rider 5.2%*
    Grainstore Rutland Beast 5.3%*
    Tydd Steam Mind Bomb 5.5%*
    Two Rivers Norfolk Stout 5.8%*
    Thornbridge Jaipur IPA 5.9%*


    It's a fairly tough choice from several this week but I'll go for the Wild Card Queen Of Diamonds IPA which is normally just kegged nowadays. It was £3.60 in the Brewery Tap and is a strong candidate for the most bitter 5% beer I've ever tried.
