Southwark Brewery list their Rhode Island IPA as one of their past beers. But it was available in the cask version down at the Dog and Bell tonight. A really excellent journey beer, travelling well from the front of the mouth to the back and to the top and bottom of the glass. Dark for an IPA but so good I'll forgive them for forgetting what the pale in IPA stands for.
Also a cask Rockin Robin Redbest from Maidstone (Kent). A good and fairly richly malted bitter with little front of the mouth flavour but a good mix of malt and hoppy bitterness in the last 2/3rds.
Also part 2: A 12 Acres Rye IPA. An Irish Keg beer, presumably imported by landlord Seamus; I'll give it an ok rating because, while perfectly imbibable, it was a bit indistinct for me so I'm struggling to think of anything to say about it. (I was with booze brother who was loudly enjoying a Rhode Island alongside, which made me envious of his. But it's another beer on the list for 2018.)
