Fairly busy late on a Saturday afternoon.

Oakham - Midnight Mild4.00GoodWell it's mild for Oakham. Black with high bitterness for a mild, from roast malt and hops. A drish finish. My score 14/20.
Whim - Flower Power5.30AcceptableThe perfect antidote to a bitter mild, a very bitter strong pale bitter. Lots of citrus hop flavours in this with a dry finish. My score 14/20.

Hook Norton - SDM4.60GoodDark brown in colour, quite bitter for a mild and not a great deal of maltiness, but some hoppiness. My suspicion is that this is Old Hooky with added caramel.
