    A flying start for me as I'm currently staying in Worcester, on my own, for a few days. What's a man to do on an evening? Enjoyed the TSA 'Double Espresso' and Adnams 'Ghost Ship' in The Postal Order (JDW), but was blown away by Hobson's Mild in The Plough. Wonderful stuff.

    It was The Plough itself that blew me away. We loved the place. One of the very few 10's I've awarded.

    I suspect it will become base camp whilst I'm here! Just checked when my review was on the dark side and unbelievably my last visit was two years ago.

    Mini fest on in the 7 Stars Bristol but the landlord didn't send around a list in time so his loss. Beers of North and Mid Wales. The Purple Moose Glaslyn Ale is excellent. That well brewed,tasty type of beer that you don't want to stop drinking............

    An afternoon spent checking some pubs* for possible inclusion in the 2012 GBG today but not many outstanding beers. The Ilkley Mary Jane at a whopping 3.5% was extremely nice and very drinkable so that'll be the one.

    *a tough job but.....well you know the rest.

    With the boat at it's winter mooring and undergoing minor repairs to get through the Boat Safety Certificate and to prepare for next years voyage of discovery,my pub outings have been severely curtailed but I did manage a trip to Our Mutual Friend in Stevenage which included a very well kept Slater's Original ;happy to nominate it as my BOTW.

    Little to choose from this week but a very drinkable pint or two of Purity's Mad Goose at 4.2% sampled in The Coaching Inn at Great Brington is a worthy BOTW for me.

    It's looking like Adnams Old Ale this week (available in a few Geronimo Inns outlets in London as well some of the tied houses).
