    Beers this week from Wellington, Anchor, Lamp Tavern, Black Horse, Navigation, Brown Lion and Lord Clifden in Birmingham, GBBF and Bree Louise in London.

    Lots of good beers but BOTW is Two Towers Sherborne Wort 5.1% from Brown Lion.

    A reasonably subdued week with Exmoor Silver Stallion, Mayfields Summer Pilot and a couple of mystery ales at The Merchants in Rugby for judging as Warwickshire ale of the year tried. Nothing to write home about and nothing to touch BOTW Oakham Bishops Farewell.

    Easy one this week - had some pretty mundane beers but the Westerham Hop Rocket at Dartford's Paper Moon was a new one on me and pretty does does what it says on the tin. Really liked this one!

    Not much beer variety in the French Alps, so my BOTW will be Mützig Old Lager - not great, but powerful stuff (7.3% I think), especially when served in pints at the famous Bar Robinson in Morzine. It's the only draught beer they sell, and the quirky place closes 19:30 in a town when most bars are just starting their 'happy hour'. Just as well really, as even the craziest mountain bikers wouldn't want to drink too many of these...

    Late submission Due too being on leave and having a heavy Beer week.
    It was a toss up between Tring Fanny Ebbs Summer Ale & Hereford Herefordshire Owd Bull so I will go for the

    A very quiet week on the cask beer front, but Otter Amber, tried at The Witchball, Lizard beer festival was the best of those I sampled.

    This was my BOTW a few weeks back: unusual,made me think about it. Might be in the running for beer of the year.
