A word about the New Bristol Brewery beers, apart from the Crème Brulee they were cloudy and crap. I've no idea if the cask ones were supposed to be like that..
The winner is the Lakehouse Cherry Chocolate Porter (£3.60) as tried in the Stoubridge Queens Head. It's not too sweet and the flavours weren't overpowering.

New Bristol was my brewery of the year.But what do I know.Not tried any of those so cant comment.Yes always murky beer in my experience.
