    A good week in London with some real quality.

    Cloudwater -- Bitter *
    Hopcraft -- March of the Giants *
    Siren Craft -- Broken Dream Breakfast Stout *
    Abbeydale -- Frolicker
    Siren Craft -- Vermont Tea Party
    Fountain Brew -- Bloody Porter
    Hammerton -- N7* (3PT)
    Saltaire -- Triple Chocaholic *
    Moor -- Nor' Hop
    Burning Sky -- Aurora *
    Burning Sky -- Porter

    BOTW goes to Siren Craft Broken Dream Breakfast Stout,unbelievably good in The Euston Tap,so drinkable ,so dangerous.Is it going to get Beer of the Year two years running ?

    Next week looking quiet apart from the annual visit to Marsworth,nothing to do there except drink
