Yellowhammer was my blonde of the festival and Batemans DM my mild, but that barrel-aged Clotworthy Dobbin is truly special.

Enjoy, all.

Truly awful i thought, it had all of the downsides of oak and little of the advantages, my own attempt at an oak aged beer was better. Had about 10 halfs and about 4 of them were pretty poor, the barrel aged clot dob and croak and stagger being the worst offenders, i should really have made them take the croak and stagger back, it was oxidised, yeast bitten and had a low level infection but by the time i'd taken a big mouthful of it queueing up to hand back a quarter pint seemed a waste of time.
BTW the tasting notes on the sheet are pie in the sky and bare little or no resemblence to what the beer actually tastes like more often than not.

The champion beer from clanconnel was good, BG sips and another hoppy one with tiger in the name was also good.

No Clotworthy. No BG Sips. No Clanconnel stout. No Castle Rock Rock Harvest Pale. You snooze (ie show up on Saturday), you lose...

Croak & Stagger definitely infected.

Loved the Bateman's Salem Porter, and Whitewater's All That Jazz was pretty good, I thought.
