    Black Sheep is always a favourite of mine. Old Speckled Hen (Golden Hen) usually goes down well too

    Best beer I've ever had is a Wadworth's beer called Swordfish. Based on their 6X ale (which is tasty enough on its own) flavoured with Naval rum.

    Never seen it in the shops though - only place I've found it was when we visited the Wadworth's brewery in Devizes.

    IPA rules the roost in my house this year.

    Stocking the drinks fridge this weekend, it'll be mostly Brewdog Punk, Hitachino Nest White and some Guinness.
