Not a great week, for me either, with just the four tried.
Raw - Independence.
Great Heck - Treasure IPA.
Fernandes - Nelson IPA.
Rat - Rat-sputin.
Easy winner was the Nelson IPA, which as the name suggests is made with the wonderful Nelson Sauvin hop.

Bit of everything, with some tried and tasted standard pub fayre, local delights and fancy names, but the winner is a dark beer yet again - the Siren - with smoke, chocolate and toffee flavours in the mix and a robust alcohol hit, sampled at Wycombe's quirky Heidrun.
