A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Not a big list this week but quality as all were good :-
Lincoln Green Marion 3.8%
Shepherd Neame Spitfire Gold 4.0%
Robinson's Unicorn 4.2%
Barlow Dr Rudi 4.5%
Flash House Original Porter 4.5%
Brunswick Rocket 4.7%
Titanic Plum Porter 4.9%
Wincle Burke's Special 5.0%
Abstract Jungle Sturdy IPA 5.6%
Salopian Bulletproof 5.8%
Ashover Thor Cake 5.8%
Oakham Green Devil (Bottle) 6.0%
Brunswick Black Sabbath 6.5%
I thought the Spitfire Gold would be a turkey but it was actually a pleasant low ABV golden ale much better than the original.
The winner is the Salopian Bulletproof as tried in the superb Olde Vic near the rear of Stockport Station.
BOTW Salopian Bulletproof
A compact list from me as well,
Castle Rock Harvest Pale
Purity Pure Gold
Marstons Power of Three
Wychwood Hobgoblin Gold
Little London Hoppy Hilda
Branscombe Vale Mild
Loddon Reading Dark
Fuller's London Pride
As Aqualung was expecting a turkey in Spitfire Gold so was I with the Hobgoblin Gold and was likewise surprised with a decent beer ,
the nicest of the week however was Loddon Reading Dark ,a 4.2% Mild/Porter hybrid, enjoyed in The Plough.

Castle Rock - Harvest Pale.
Abbeydale - Moonshine.*
Welbeck - Portland Black.
