Philip Pirrip		25 Jan 2018	Once again must be first out for a while and OK
Philip Pirrip		25 Jan 2018	2nd one and so much cooler, fresher and more enjoyable
Philip Pirrip	Not Tried	24 Jan 2018	Did not risk it, bar staff had not sold any for quite a while
Philip Pirrip		18 Jan 2018	Same pattern as last night, 1st one was cloying and not enjoyable
Philip Pirrip		18 Jan 2018	Took a punt that yesterday's pattern would recur and rightly so. This 2nd pint was fresher, cooler and cleaner tasting to the palate. Serendipity indeed
Philip Pirrip		17 Jan 2018	1st out for a while I am sure, cloying
Philip Pirrip		17 Jan 2018	2nd one was a transformation, fresher, cooler and cleaner on the palate
