The most interesting beer I tried this week was the Dark Star & Thornbridge collaboration ThornStar - an intensely hoppy, Black IPA which uses 6 different types of New Zealand hops but retains some roasted malt background. Unlike any other beer I've tried before, but although I enjoyed it, I don't think I would be able to drink too much in one go, so it doesn't get my BOTW nomination.
There are plenty of other contenders though - Acorn Blonde, Salopian Darwin's Origin, Kissingate Black Cherry Mild and Ascot Vanilla Stout, but BOTW goes to Vale Brewery Black Beauty - a lovely, rich porter and the highlight of the 'Dark Ales Festival' at the Hope, Carshalton.
