Richie Holmes is drinking an English Stout by 4T’s Brewery Ltd at The Borehole
Line playing up, sadly, so could only have a taster. Seems like it could be a belter, with a very traditional flavour profile for a stout, coffee, chocolate, nothing venturing towards dark roasted malt, liquorice or molasses. On that alone, I rate it!

Richie Holmes is drinking a LB 901 Lune Valley Gold (Cascade & Amarillo) by Lune Brew Co at The Borehole
Amarillo nicely lift this brew, and for a 4.2% hand pull it is modern styled. Plenty of malt accompanies. Robustly bodied, reasonable head. Good stuff, Lune Brrew Co.

Richie Holmes is drinking a McEwan's Champion by Eagle Brewery at Stone
Over 12 years since I checked this in, quite possibly the last time I had it too! Still a beauty. A not so wee heavy!

Richie Holmes is drinking a Hoverboards by Shiny Brewery at The Borehole
Zesty pale, with some distinct notes beyond average citrus pales. Lots of lemon up front, but they lead to spicier, herbal notes at the top. Body and head feel quite heavy. And absolutely no hint that it’s beyond about 4.5%!
