Greenwich Ale Monnet Cognac barrel aged. OK but a but underwhelming really.

Actually on reflection it's not too bad, the taste is quite subtle rather than overpowering and that's not a bad thing.
Shame you're stuck in a pub with whatever w***er that paper belongs to.

A visit to the cheap bargain type shop sometimes throws up a few interesting bottles, today it was this 660ml jobbie for £1.89.

Apologies for the glass but everything else is in the dishwasher.

A gluten-free mosaic pale ale. Super tropical with a little pine. Maybe a touch too sweet for me, but very very nice.

A couple of excellent post-ride recovery pints at the Mumbles Alehouse yesterday afternoon - Hopcraft Temple of Love followed by Oakham Inferno. In the evening I strolled in the other direction, where the brewer at the Pilot had been bigging up his new SUP IPA, and an earlier tweet promised back-up if it didn't deliver:

Try our IPA face off. Punk v SUP v Chieftain @brewdog @sa3pilotbrewery @supgower

I even bypassed good stuff on the handpumps and went straight for the fizz!

I ignored the Franciscan Well, which is a Molson-Coors offering and appears to have been foisted upon them as a condition of stocking or installing something else. The SUP is refreshing and distinctive, but not as good as he thinks it is, and it's outclassed (and also, admittedly, outpriced) by the Punk. My view might have been influenced by the SUP being served in a horrible Carling glass. I finished the evening in predictable fashion:
