    I suspect having it served in the Northern style helped its cause no end. Yes, I know how much you love sparklers, David.
    Yes, might have deadened the flavour! Looking back, I think they must have changed the barrell , and not properly pulled through. I did see the guvnor take one or two samples as he rushed past.However, he should have alerted the barmaids.

    I tried it in the well respected The Knott in Manchester.

    It just didn't work for me. I thought it was crap. I think they may be overthinking it.

    I wouldn't go as far as calling it crap (it's not John Smith's Smooth) but it did have a heavy taste of a New World Hop that I don't really like. If I could remember it I would tell you which one! The two others I tried from them were much better.

    XT Animal Lion London Porter. A lovely, smooth 4.6% porter. Tried in The Baum of course.
