Gales Festival Mild ... by Richard's son George and, following a major fire in 1869, the brewery was rebuilt.

So I came back from the Mens to find that a friend had rather nicely gone and brought me a pint of the next beer I was waiting to try. I have to say that my first impression was not that good, I felt that it tasted rather watery but this happens a lot with various beers that I try. However despite of this damning first analysis I stuck with and really start... Read the full review: Lower alcohol (3.4%) - great taste. by Irp13 |
