    Harlow,Old Street and Croydon.

    Burning Sky -- Aurora *
    Mc Mullens -- Country Bitter
    Mc Mullens -- AK
    Pig & Porter -- Fatal Flaw
    Five Points -- XPA * (>3PT)
    Oakham -- Citra *
    Oakham -- Scarlet Macaw *

    BOTW goes to Five Points XPA,a very fine 4% session pale ale which kept flowing through a very long bout in The Old Fountain.

    This week a well earned rest before the Christmas excesses.

    A visit to the North East produced this lot :-

    Marston's Wozz Ale (Rebadge?) 3.6%
    Allendale Pennine Pale 4.0%
    Yard Of Ale Hellcat Blonde 4.0%
    Firebrick Pagan Queen 4.0%
    Maxim Wards Best Bitter 4.0%
    Sonnet 43 Seraphim 4.1%
    Richmond Greyfriars Stout 4.2%
    Thornbridge Galaxia 4.5%
    Errant Razorback Stout 4.7%
    Richmond Das Boots 4.8%
    Leeds Midnight Bell 4.8%
    Shepherd Neame Redpoint Disco Macaw 4.8%
    Saltaire Cascadian Black 4.8%
    Three Brothers Black Forest Porter 4.8%
    Otter Pale Ale 4.9%
    Titanic Plum Porter 4.9%
    Jenning's Snecklifter 5.1%
    Kelham Island Pale Rider 5.2%
    Sonnet 43 Impressment APA 5.4%
    Sonnet 43 The Right Brew #41 5.6%
    Maxim Maximus 6.0%
    Allendale Thunderstruck 7.4%

    The easy winner is the Allendale Thunderstruck as tried for £4.60 in the excellent Durham Station House. The only downside was that they were only selling it in halves so I had to repeatedly go back to the bar to keep my pint topped up.

    Almost certainly Marston's EPA. That's the one they allow to be used as a house ale.

    Not drinking much at present (in spite of appearances in Stockport) but Slaters Coffee Stout was rather nice.

    Thanks for that, it tasted like a Marston's brew rather than their other breweries and was very pedestrian.
