| East London (ELB) - Seven Boroughs | 5.50 | | Came out hazy but no pre-warning. Can ELC produce a clear beer anymore? I fear not, so one to add to my growing list of breweries not to bother with |
| Saltaire - DDH Citra | 4.20 | | Very last out of cask. Had held up reasonably well to the end |
| Hophurst - Milkshake IPA | 6.00 | | On a few days now - tiring |
