Yesterday evening ... The Roebuck Inn, Nottingham;
Liberation Pilsner 3.8% - A cask lager but far too bland for me.
Truman's Sampson Strong 5.8% - Certainly lives up to it's name. Mahogany coloured and packed full of flavours including biscuit, caramel, fruits and port.

Also from the visit to Leeds yesterday ...
The former Prince of Wales, near the railway station, has re-opened as Baht'ap and is serving a number of real ales.
The Hop Studio's Eau de Lune, a black saison 4.8% (in the Head of Steam) and Moorhouses Ruby Witch 4.6% (in the Griffin) were both delicious.

Cheers!
My real disappointment is that it has been downgraded from 50 to just 30 ales this time.

Wanderer.
Mrs M recommends a Bottled beer from Wychwood brewery. Dunkel Fester, 4.4% dark & malty with a coffee and roasted nut finish (so it says on the lable). Any road she thinks you may enjoy. Its Wychwoods Halloween special.
The good news its at Aldi and £1.25 a bottle. Cheers.

Had a delicious ruby ale from the Stancill brewery in the Corner Pin last night. India 4.0% is deliciously malty with hints of biscuit and toffee.

Caledonian Trick or Treat 4.4% sampled in the Black Bull last night was very enjoyable. Malty and spicy and very much to my taste.
