    A streamlined mostly local based week.

    Windsor & Eton Guardsman
    Black Sheep Twilighter
    Flowerpots Perridge Pale
    Youngs Bitter
    Colchester Jester
    Muirside Big Bertha
    Triple fff Pressed Rat And Warthog

    I enjoyed several of the Black Sheep beer but just shading it to BOTW is Colchester Jester in beautiful condition in The Alfred.

    A slow week for me with a list dominated by ELB due to a Meet The Brewer thingy at the Wanstead George.



    ELB Orchid Mild 3.6%
    ELB Pale 4.0%
    ELB Foundation Bitter 4.2%
    ELB Nightwatchman 4.5%
    Hook Norton Old Hooky 4.6%
    ELB Jamboree 4.8%
    Shepherd Neame Bishops Finger 5.0%
    Portobello APA 5.0%
    Reunion Incredible Pale 5.0%
    Brewdog Punk IPA (keg) 5.4%
    ELB Quadrant Oatmeal Stout 5.8%

    Sadly the Cowcatcher ran out but the Quadrant Stout (£2.09) was silky smooth so I had another. I've found that all the ELB beers have some merit and they don't do murky or sour beers.

    Another quiet week. No Sunday afternoon wander, unfortunately.

    Ilkley - Blonde.
    Roosters - Pils-Near.
    Magic Rock - Common Grounds.*
    Ossett - Otago.
    Mill Valley - Yorkshire Rose.
    Phoenix - Monkeytown MILD.
    North Riding - Cascade.*
    Five Towns - Monster Mash.

    Easy winner was the Common Grounds, a 5.4% Coffee Porter.

    Dull week with Purity Lawless making BOTW. Cold and refreshing, until it ran out, on a warm afternoon.

    Kent:quiet.

    Kent-Session Pale Ale 3.7%. Perfect for a humid summer's day.
