Had the Darkstar Hophead Citra yesterday. Absolutely perfect when it was phew-what-a-scorcher outside. Delicious.
A few good beers last night , Empire Pacifica , Allgates Super Alpha , Abbeydale Belfry and Elgoods Snake Slayer (stout).
Should be a good day , its sunny and a trip to Shrewsbury is on the cards

I have only had Belgian beers this week, but my BOTW has to be Van Honsbrouck Kasteelbier Donker. Amazingly quaffable at 11%.

That's the one I was trying to recall, the name, not the beer, for last week. Yey verily, drink up indeed..........Originally Posted by Alesonly

Pubs are a hobby, real ale is a passion. Oh, and like me dogs, fear no evil..........
A close run thing between Oakham White Dwarf and Saltaire Cascadian Black but the Oakham was really excellent.
Not much of a contest this week. I liked the Saltaire Liquorice Stout in the 'Spoons fest but this was trumped by a beer from a brewery who have been getting a few mentions on these threads - Old Dairy Copper Top.
A fine choice - if you see the Gold Top anywhere, go for it big time!
