Matt L is drinking a JDW Birrificio Gregorio Falstaff by J D Wetherspoon at The Brandon Works (Wetherspoon)

Not my style of beer but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate it. Very fruity thick, strong piney and quite cloudy. Hoppy and malty which is interesting but I generally prefer either or! Some interesting characters in this Motherwell spoons!

Wes Mac is drinking a Game On by J.W. Lees & Co. at The Brandon Works (Wetherspoon)

A best whose fruitiness borders on ESB territory. Sweet and malty base with all the usual hop bitterness on the end. Conforms to all the hallmarks of the style, but just comes off as a bit characterless and uninspiring.

Wes Mac is drinking a Worthington's Best Bitter/Creamflow by Molson Coors (UK) at The Brandon Works (Wetherspoon)

The pish you're forced to drink sometimes. A boring nitro bitter. Grainy, bland, and overly chilled.

Wes Mac is drinking a Fuggle-Dee-Dum by Goddards Brewery at The Brandon Works (Wetherspoon)

Touted as a bitter, but tastes more like a cross between an ESB and an American Red Ale. However, the Fuggles give it an earthiness which tempers the cloying sweetness of the latter aforementioned style. A decent ale, but not really my thing.

Wes Mac is drinking a Hop A Doodle Doo by Brewster's Brewery at The Brandon Works (Wetherspoon)

Fruity, flavoursome, easy drinking bitter. Sweet malt accentuates the hop combo, which gives summer fruits, red berries, and light marmalade. Very slight bitter finish with the tiniest hint of alcohol, but overall very light. Pours bright copper.
