    Great British Beer Festival

    As you can see from the score sheets this one was re-categorised by the judging panel into Thank Brew Pale Ale. Surprised as it was 4.7% ABV, but it is a pale ale brewed with classic British hops and interesting that entries are not dismissed if they are judged to be of merit but fit a different...
