    Just a handful of pre-curry swifties, this week.

    Mallinsons - Rakau Wakatu.
    Craven - VIP.*
    Wensleydale - Gamekeeper.
    Tiny Rebel - California Love.*
    Wilde Child - Patriot Games.
    Grilled Saint - Holy Orders.

    Easy winner was the VIP. There's still an ongoing debate whether this is Elland 1872 Porter in different clothing, but in either case it's still a great beer. Taken at Harry's Bar.

    More BOTW Brancaster Oystercatcher taken than anything else and it may be a while until I meet it again.

    Pamona Island -- Scorchio *
    Kent -- Prohibition
    Siren -- Cali Pride *

    A bit of a mixed bunch with some ale not in top condition from two well established ale houses but BOTW goes to Pamona Island Scorchio ,a fine sessionable beer in The Southampton Arms.
