My Conniston Bluebird Bitter clone (Bluebird Bitter) as I don't have a clue what the original is like.
You've quite a way with words drunkula, nice reviewI just had a Hobgoblin Gold. It is one of the most vile beers I've ever had. It's like carbonated golden syrup. It is an awful, lingering, pestilent, sickly mawkish bottled horror. It's like my mouth was ***** by toffee apples but the apples shied away because they didn't want to provide some acidic balance. It's absolutely diabolically awful. I've just been through a few of my homebrews that I thought weren't that great but they're like leviathans compared to this diabetic filth.
I didn't like it.

I love broadside its very complex and hard to pin down hop wise, another is mac champion flows down the pipes like a rolls Royce if you were blind folded you would never say these 2 ales were as strong as they areTower Brewery Burton Imperial IPA - not bad, sort of an odd trad British style IPA but with new world hops, and also a bit lighter than most traditional IPA's - I now that makes it sound like a an american IPA but I cant quite put my finger on how it differs from that style ~ yeast, perhaps? OK, not sure I would actively seek it out, but would be interested o try it on hand pump.
Adnams Broadside. Phew. This slips down nicely for a strong ale, doesn't it! Loving it, don't know what the hops are but they are very Fuggle like. Yum yum.
Hi Clint there is other stuff in adnams that gives it that subtle taste its like it hits you after you have swallowed and lingers in the back groundWeb site says first gold hops...
