Pre-lockdown list:

Quantock Wills Neck
Marston's Pedigree
Yorkshire Heart Blackheart Stout*
Purity Gold
Oakham Bishops Farewell*
Salopian Golden Thread*

Enjoyed the Golden Thread but BOTW goes to Yorkshire Heart Blackheart Stout which went down well on a chilly with the added bonus of being a new brewery to me.
Already missing cask beer.

A final pub in Warwick before Lockdown II

Thornbridge -- Jaipur IPA * (can)
BrewDog -- Elvis Juice (can)

Next week scrambling around the back of the cupboard.

[Wittenden]

Didn't get to the pub before LD2, and we should have been in North Yorkshire now, so I'm grumpier than usual.From cans:

Good Things Brewing:
Into the Pines 7.4%abv West Coast IPA. Heavyweight.
First Tracks 3.2%abv Session Pale Stone fruit. Hazy.
Cellar Head Amitola 4.2%abv APA. Tropical fruit,with a decent degree of bitterness.

Amitola is rapidly becoming a beer of choice for me, but I was really impressed with the character of the lighter First Tracks, my BOTW. Next week, two new'uns from Good Things.
