Sharp's Abbey Christmas proved a fine accompaniment to the work festive lunch yesterday (at one of those Geronimo Inns that Youngs have just bought - certainly the best food we have had at such an event in recent memory, and not actually that expensive).
A decent start to the weekend (the promised stronger beers are being held back for xmas/new year)
Ossett - Nervous Turkey
Salamander - Plum Bum
Okells - St Nick
Saltaire - White Christmas
Mallinsons - Comet
all pretty good but the Plum Bum is in pole at the moment

No further ale opportunities for the week unfortunately so my BOTW is Saltaire's Triple Chocoholic, another top quality winter warmer and extremely popular at The Coal Hole on The Strand.

Had a good week by my (financially) restrained standards these days:
Nethergate - IPA.
Mauldon - Black Adder
Riverhead - Galena IPA.
Brew Co - Bock.
Great Heck - Yorkshire Export.
Dr Morton's - Eurocrat.
Bob's - White Lion.
Northumberland - Rudolph's Balls.
Ossett - Nervous Turkey.
Sharps - Cornish Stout
Thornbridge - Wild Holly
Elland - Stocking Top
Elland- Diablo Chocolate Porter.
Thoroughly enjoyed some well kept Black Adder and the Cornish Stout, but the Diablo's probably the winner. (Unless by some miracle I can squeeze in a couple tomorrow).
