Afternoon through to evening. A welcome return, for me at least. Cannot abide Earls Court.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marble - Lagonda IPA | 5.00 | | Listed as 5.0% ABV. |
| Blue Monkey - Infinity IPA (was Infinity) | 4.60 | | |
| Arbor Ales - Oyster Stout | 4.60 | | In the program as 4.6% ABV. |
| Coniston - No.9 Barley Wine | 8.50 | | Champion Beer of Britain 2012. Third of a pint measure. Long queue was observed at 3pm when this was put on. Half an hour later I got my third without waiting. |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Wild River | 4.50 | | |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Brewer's Reserve No.4 | 8.50 | | Matured in Armagnac casks. Third of a pint. Rich, full-bodied. Lovely. |
| Greene King - 5X | 12.00 | | Third of a pint. Vintage oak-aged beer normally unavailable to the drinking public and reserved for blending into GK's other beers. Don't believe GK can make great beer? Then you need to try this! |
| Thwaites - 13 Guns (canned) | 5.50 | | Thwaites turn their hands to an American style IPA and come up with a winner. My favourite beer of the day. |
| Falstaff - 3-Faze | 3.80 | | |
| Stone - Pale Ale | 5.40 | | |
| Goose Eye - Chinook Blonde | 4.20 | |
