My Beer of the week for this week is....... Fullers London Pride !!
And before I get accused of some kind of dementure, the background is because I have been out the country for 4 weeks (for reasons I won't bore you good people on the PuG forums) , and suffice to say that most of the free time was spent trying to track down beverages which did not taste like fizzy piss in a glass..
And my first pint of ale back on home soil this week was Pride, and boy, did it taste good......

Hyde's Plum Treat was my best Pint this week Its was the perfect afternoon Pint too wash down the Large Cod & Chips I just had in the Tally Ho Fish Bar before going in the Spoons over the road. Its a nice refreshing Pint nice ruby red but low in alcohol being only 4% makes a nice change.
Hyde's Plum Treat 
Don't You just hate Pubs that say
( We don't stock any Real Ales as theres Just no call for it.)
BOTW for me was Brodies Amarilla which flew down outside The Old Coffee House in Soho on a very warm and busy session.The heavy citrus bitterness was perfect on a balmy evening and I will be trying to sample more from the Brodies range,given their success with this brew.
Windsor & Eton Conqueror Black IPA 5%
Sambrooks Junction 4.5%
Thornbridge Kipling South Pacific Pale Ale 5.2%
Peak Ales DPA 4.6%
Youngs Special 4.5%
plus three experimental ones from the potential Seething Brewery - Pooley's Pride 3.9%, Hopping Lamb 4.2%, and Easter Hop 4.6%.
The experimental ones were really rather good - I do hope they get set up as a regular brewery. But the Peak Ales DPA gets it from me as they slipped down so well in the Sheffield Tap.
