BeerABVScoreNotes
Eagle (formerly Wells & Young's, formerly Charles Wells, formerly Wells) - Young's Ram Rod5.00GoodQuite sweet to start with then some bitterness kicks in towards the finish. My score 15/20.
Hilden - Scullion's Plain Porter4.20GoodBlack in colour. Dry, malty and bitter, a good example of an Irish Porter. Dry, malty finish. My score 15/20.
Oakleaf (now see Fallen Acorn entries) - Wethers Original4.80AcceptableAmber coloured, fairly dry with restrained hop and malt flavours. My score 14/20.
