A new trio for me tonight down at the Hound and Ding-dong. Despite the Watney's chalked up on the board outside, I first went for a Milestone Crusader, which was a quite old-fashioned kind of lightly-bitter bitter that worked its way through the mouth quite smoothly. Noting that the Watney's wasn't chalked up inside, I then went for a Moor So'Hop. Looking at the reviews for this beer I read the following comment:

Nez: Agrumes, fruits tropicaux Bouche: Pamplemousse, ananas, pêche, herbacée Une Session bien fruitée sur des notes de pamplemousse, d'ananas et de pêche avec une pointe herbacée dans le final ainsi qu'une amertume franche qui reste bien en longueur accompagnée d'une sécheresse.
I can agree with the grapefruitfulness but mine definitely didn't have peaches and bananas. Grapefruity in a toned-down kind of way. The floral taste didn't only announce itself at the end, it was there throughout. Enjoyable, sessionable. Moor apparently are a Bristol brewery.

I finished off with a Langley's porter. If you type Langley's porter into a search engine it'll direct you to a psychiatric hospital in San Francisco. If you type Langley's brewery into the same search engine it'll suggest a brewery whose home page proudly displays a Union Jack. But no, they're an outfit in BC,, Canada. Anyhow, lots of dark mincemeaty fruit from whoever they are and wherever they may brew it. It reminded me of Christmas.

I may have just touched 70 on the newbeerometer.

Hunters full bore.... excellent traditional ale which is hard to find.

Brown, little head or fizz and quite murky... just like the inside of a septic tank... quite delicious

Had one of these last night, shared with a friend. It's pricey but flies off the shelves and I can see why. It's really good. A proper strong, licorice, bitter, sweet, chocolate, peanut beer. It's thick, dark and has a nice cappucino head. Gets 100 on RateBeer.

A-maz-ing!
