Figuring it was the last chance of the year to enjoy a beer in the sunshine, I came to Little Faith's tap garden in Deptford. Vossi Bop is a brand new Kweik pale ale and it's pretty good.

Ms. Slowmotion took me to the Fullers Griffin Brewery in Chiswick, West London for a late birthday present. We spent about 45minutes sampling their cask ales at the end, each one about a quarter of a pint. There wasn't any limit to the number of samples we were allowed, but most people stopped after about eight.

and one more that I can't remember.

There's also a big Brewery Shop which sells loads of bottled beer, wine and other stuff. I came away with these two bottles. It was enormous fun and well worth a visit.

Buxton Ekuanot. Fully flavourly but just a little too bitter for my taste buds. Good mind. Also pricy.

Oh, and I'm going to be in Leeds for a couple of nights. Monday and Tuesday nights aren't the best for crafts because they seem to have collectively decided that it's their weekend. But I hope to sample some Norths and Northern Monks while I'm away.

A spiced mango sour from Tooth and Claw, apparently a wing of Cameron's.

Enjoyed a couple of pints of Cooler Shaker - an "IPA milkshake" from Hebden Bridge's Vocation Brewery in the legendary Scarbrough Taps this afternoon.

Their website describes it as
Shake things up with this creamy IPA, brewed with lactose for a full-bodied and milky texture. Passionfruit and Mamey Sapote balance the sweetness of the lactose and give this brew an exotic finish

I got one to try given the description and it was so nice I had to have another.
It really is rather good.

What or who is Mamey Sapote?
