I'll pop my post up sometime this morning once I have edited it (yup edited, a novel idea for me!).<br /><br />Marble Brewery were my brewers of the festival. That first pint of pint on the second day was one of the best beers I have had this year. Dobber was a worthy winner.<br /><br />Dubbel, I'm with you on the ginger, I thought it was really good!Peter Brissendenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00137694728835849282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8717216232742676074.post-55915430229790666342009-06-09T21:11:29.187+01:002009-06-09T21:11:29.187+01:00Ha!

It had been roughed up in my bag and it was sediment-heavy but it seemed to be more than that.<br /><br />Brad, I totally agree about POTY. I know a couple of the other Kent ones but I've never been in them which is terrible on my part because they are each only 10 minutes drive from my house!!<br /><br />And I think Oakham is on while I'm on holiday which also coincides with the White Horse Parsons Green USA fest featuring cask Stone and Dogfish Head! NOOOOO! I've considered cancelling the holiday but I fear my girlfriend would chop off my balls :) Mythos it is!Mark Dredgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11421095862178324693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8717216232742676074.post-90090914748927403882009-06-09T21:02:30.120+01:002009-06-09T21:02:30.120+01:00I think your assessment is pretty much spot-on the...I think your assessment is pretty much spot-on there (apart from the Marble Ginger, of course, which was fantastic!)<br /><br />Marble won some serious plaudits from pretty much everyone I spoke to over the weekend. Great stuff.<br /><br />If this place doesn't win Kent and then Southeast Pub of the Year this year I'm shredding my camra card in protest...<br /><br />Oakham showcase next up!Dubbelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06035458276989843392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8717216232742676074.post-76726280915636058852009-06-09T20:50:40.370+01:002009-06-09T20:50:40.370+01:00That's quite set of sessions.

I wonder was it a bad barrel or just a dud bottle? Or am I missing something? :DBarry Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367655129107699025noreply@blogger.com
