The Second Fish Beer Festival

I could only manage one part night at the second Fish Beer Festival but I did get to sample quite a few new beers in the short time I was there. The reason for the short visit was the impending rip to France (France reviews to follow soon), such a shame.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Steve and Mandy (and anyone else involved in the organisation) for doing such a great job.

As it was a Friday night, we had Trev and Pat with us and we also met up with Paul, visiting from down south, Mick and Bren were there anyway, as usual. As I had a few new beers on the night, I am going to do the review slightly different, you will have to click he photo to see tte review.

The new beers I had that night were,

Derventio, Centurion, England


Woodford's, Admiral's Reserve, England


Hadrian, Gladiaor, England


Rudgate, Battle Axe, England


Three Castles, Saxon Archer, England


Allgates, Napoleon's Retreat, England


Spire, Sgt Pepper Stout, England


Bath, Barnstormer, England


Marston Moor, Cromwells Pale, England


Arundel, Castle, England
