I helped out with this event last year and had a blast. The fish they prepared was some of the best I have ever had, and the portions are huge. So far, I have 13 different English beers lined up to sample, and I'm sure I will be dipping into my vintage collection for a few aged beers as well (I'll keep you guessing on which ones!)

Here is the beer lineup in no particular serving order:
Samuel Smith Nut Brown Ale
Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout
Samuel Smith Imperial Stout
Old Speckled Hen
Olde Suffolk Ale
Green King Abbot Ale
Fuller's ESB
Mackeson XXX Stout
Whitbread Pale Ale
Monty Python's Holy Grail Ale
St. Peter's Cream Stout
Young's Double Chocolate Stout
Meantime London Porter.

i can't vouch for:

Old Speckled Hen
Olde Suffolk Ale
Green King Abbot Ale
Mackeson XXX Stout
Whitbread Pale Ale

but the rest are delicious, especially the samuel smith's imperial stout.

I've got the vintage beers determined. It looks like we will have the following for sampling:

1998 J. W. Lees Harvest Ale
2005 J. W. Lees Harvest Ale aged in Sherry Cask
1996 Gales Prize Ale
2005 Thomas Hardy's Old Ale

Damn Todd.
reading this, It made me remember the Sherry Cask....


I've been cellaring a '04 vintage vertical of '04 J.W. Lees Harvest Ales (Calvados, Port and Lagavulin Whisky casks), all of which i purchased at the Keg.
(i guess calling it a 'vertical' is most appropriate?)

I think i got the last of two of the casks you had in stock, and was a bit bummed out that the Sherry Cask was gone.



Anyone who may of might have a '04 J.W. Lees Harvest Ale (Sherry Cask), PM me... i'd be interested in purchasing it, or maybe sitting down and doing a tasting.

Ethan,

Stop back in, I've got to poking around my inventory and I've got 12 bottles of the 04 Sherry Cask that someone ordered and never picked up, so you are welcome to buy as many of them as you want. I didn't realize that they were the older vintage, as I have been stocking the shelves out of a box of the 05 that we got in.

Todd

Thanks Todd!
