    I actually had my first ever pint from Old Dairy brewery this week a regular on the Wittenden scoreboard.

    Old Copper Top, not bad at all and at £1.49 with a JDW voucher a bit of a bargain.

    It's probably nearer a fiver in Kent.

    Modest week:

    Brancaster Oystercatcher*
    San Miguel
    Moongazer Nibbler*
    Oakham Bishops Farewell*

    The Nibbler was a BBB but a good one and Moongazer seem to be turning out some decent beers but BOTW goes to Brancaster Oystercatcher. An old favourite which didn't disappoint.

    Camden,a slow start to the year.

    Oakham -- Citra
    St Austell -- Tribute
    Fuller's -- London Pride
    Butcombe -- Original

    Limited ale range resulted in this list,and sadly the Citra wasn't well kept,so BOTW by default goes to Fuller's London Pride,kept as well as you could hope in The Hawley Arms

    Next week much of the same while boating is suspended due to some internal refurbing.
