The other day I had a couple of pints of some very nice stout called Dogwatch from the Nelson Brewery and very tasty it was as well.
This stout did not have the normal Nelson Brewery distinct taste of their other beers I have tried over the years, and I would enjoy having this beer again in the future.
The term Dog Watch is a naval term for two short work periods, the first between 16:00 and 18:00 and the second between 18:00 and 20:00 Hours.
The other day I tried a couple of pints of Skinner’s Cornish Knocker ale and very tasty it was, with a slight tangy taste to it.
For some extra information a Knocker was a Tin Mine Fairy who lived down the mines and used to guide the miners to the rich veins of tin with their knocking.
The miners used to repay them by leaving them the crust from their pasties.
Last night I had a few pints of a very lovely beer called Monarchy by the Salopian Brewery, it is a light coppery colour with a nice taste that wants you having more.
I would certainly try their other beers after trying this one.
The other day I had a few extremely nice pints of Dragon’s Blood by Gadds and it went down very well and I hope to taste this drink again.
It is well worth drinking and it will be particularly appropriate for England’s national day St. George’s day on the 23rd of April.
On Christmas Eve I had a couple of nice pints of Morrissey Fox Mulled Ale which was a very tasty Christmassy Ale, with a spicy taste to it.
Definitely a pint to try again and I will look forward to trying more of Morrissey Fox’s brews as when I come across them.
The other day I had a couple of extremely nice pints of Bishops Finger a strong Kentish Ale by Shepherd Neame
This was the first time I had tried that particular ale in cask form rather than bottled, definitely one to try again.
The other day I had a couple of pints of Harvey’s Old Ale which is a very dark winter beer which goes down very well in the winter months.
The beer is black in colour and has won various awards over the years and I would definitely recommend it to any one who likes dark beers.
The other day as well as trying Gadd’s Rye PA I also had a few pints of Clark’s Still Intact a seasonal beer that has a taste of dark chocolate.
If you like dark chocolate then try this beer as you will not be disappointed, but if you do not like dark chocolate then give this beer a miss.
I enjoyed it and will look forward to more Clarks beers in the future
A couple of days ago I had a few pints of an extremely nice Gadd’s Rye PA which is a harvest pale ale.
If you see it try it you will not be disappointed, in fact I have never found a bad Gadd’s beer yet
A few ago I reviewed another Gadd’s Ale.
The other day I had a couple of pints of Innkeepers special reserve by the Coach House Brewing Company Limited and it went down extremely well indeed.
It is a classically ruby coloured English Ale that always leaves you wanting more of this fine ale.
I hope to find this beer again and I look forward to finding other Coach House Brewing Company Limited beers to try in the course of time.
Please if you do see this ale in a pub give it a try you will not be disappointed.
