Was at the National Winter Ales Festival last night. Winner of the Porter category (and second overall) was Sulwath 'Black Galloway' - fuck knows how, because while it was nice enough on first taste, it had a rather overwhelming aftertaste reminiscent of cheap whisky. Had to chuck the rest of my half.
On the other hand, highlights of my taste adventures were Daleside 'Morocco' (one of the nicest spiced beers I've had), a bottle of Nøgne Saison, and Cerveza Dougall's 'Invierno', a Spanish "barley wine" at 7.5% that went down like a fresh, fruity, hoppy IPA. Delicious and scary all at once.
Didn't have the opportunity to try Moor's 'Old Freddy Walker', disappointingly and I ran out of cash before I could get a bottle of To Øl 'By Udder Means'
