Sorry about that I thought I was the only one who was doing the tasting on my own. Who else has yet to do the tasting?

No worrries. So here it is...

OK here is the opinion of the Ashtown Jury (me and the missus).

First of all here is my guess at which brew was made using which method:

Experiemnt I (cyclops) = Extract
Experiemnt II (Aye Aye) = All Grain
Experiment III (Me, Myself and I) = Kit

And now for which beers I thought were the best:

1st Place - Experiment I
Thought this was a great beer, reminded me a lot of spitfire by Shepeard Neame, if I was to complain I would say that it was a little thin but I thought it was the most flavoursome.

2nd Place - Experiment III
First thing that hit me about this beer was that I thought I got a little bit of kit tang, however it was a tasty beer (my wife thought this was the best), very drinkable.

3rd Place - Experiment II
As soon as I poured this I thought it was the AG, the other two had been crystal clear but this was slightly cloudy, unfortunatley I also detected a soapy aftertaste which spoiled it for me <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( -->

I look forward to Ed's results and seeing how wrong I was <!-- s:roll: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_rolleyes.gif" alt="" title="Rolling Eyes" /><!-- s:roll: -->

**Ed, do you want me to hold onto the bottles for you, I normally don't keep bottles now because I have quite a stash?
