BeerABVScoreNotes
Nene Valley - Bible Black6.50ExcellentBible Black is my favourite descriptor of Stouts or Porters: this one certainly qualified. Sweet coffee, yum.
Oakham - Root & Branch5.00ExcellentMysterious Black IPA, hedge fruit. A suitably Cromwellian beer for the great man’s home town.
Lord Conrad's - Hedgerow hop3.70GoodThin but spicey bitter using wild hops from Swavesey.
Three Blind Mice - Cali Dreamin’5.90AcceptableRounded West Coast IPA.
