A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Kent:
Goacher's-Real MILD Ale 3.4%abv. Tovil coffee.Delicious, my BOTW.
Dark Star/Fullers-Hophead 3.4%abv.This seems much sweeter now.
Marston's-Pedigree 4.5%abv. Innocuous.

Holy Goat Sabra Cadabra Vol 2
Two keg beers in the running for BOTW firstly Holy Goat Sabra Cadabra a complex and robust Export Stout sensationally good but beaten to it by Sierra Nevada Torpedo Extra IPA which blew me away in more ways than one , a true alfa male of the beer world, supped with care in Indie Beer.
