    Blackjack -- Four of a Kind *
    Tiny Rebel -- Dutty * (3PT)
    Tiny Rebel -- Pump up the Jam
    Tiny Rebel -- Fubar
    Three Sods -- Mon Cheri IPA
    Five Points -- XPA *

    There was a partial tap takeover by Tiny Rebel at the Cask which was very good,but BOTW goes to Five Points XPA on top form in the Jackalope.

    Next week,besides Xmas another Craft Beer Co. session and two home games to hopefully deliver decent contenders.

    A very average week, but, not too many execrable Xmas brews around, fortunately.

    Roosters - Golden State.
    Small World - Thunderbridge Stout.
    North Riding - Mosaic.*
    Thornbridge - Rattlesnake.
    Colchester - Flaming Gun.
    Tigertops - Honey Bear.
    Rat - White Rat.
    Fernandes - Hophead Pixie.
    Fernandes - Rum for Cover.
    Fernandes - What the Dickens.
    Fernandes - Yule Love It.
    Titanic - Plum Porter.*

    Both the Plum Porter and Mosaic were in great shape, but the latter is probably in my top five beers for the year. Just so drinkable.
