Ramsgate Brewery- Gadds' She Sells Seashells-4.7%abv. Almost impossible to say even when sober. A golden resinous pale,which I'd not tried before.My BOTW.

Some excellent beer with a very close second place to Tartarus Faun but BOTW has to be a mind blowing 13.7% Chocolate Orange Imperial Stout,
Tartarus Kardoes the Hellhound (only £7.00 a third) worth every penny in the afore mentioned and Borough Beer House.

Everards Sleighbell
Everards Old Original*
The Sleighbell is Everards Christmas Ale with spices and fruit but it isn't a patch on BOTW Everards Old Original which, when kept well, is a top winter beer.
