It's currently selling at 5% in bottle and 4.3% in cask; the bottle is just about OK, but the cask is totally undistinguished.<br /><br />South Manchester CAMRA branches run a "Winter Warmer Wander" every year, encouraging pubs to put on winter warmers and/or stouts & porters. I've done it for the last three years & always been disappointed by the number of actual "winter warmers", i.e. old ales, Burtons & barleywines - this year my final tally was something like six out of 25, and three of those were Old Tom (always nice to see, but it'd be good to see the non-Robinsons' pubs trying a bit harder).Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07009879034507926661noreply@blogger.com
