A deadication brew going out to LS Lowry, the artist died in this day. Fittingly this is a brew from Manchester. Light pine in both aroma and taste, which lingers, and appeals for it. Crisp and easy enough despite a fair strength.

I always got Dunham Massey and Tatton Park mixed up as a kid. I'm fine now with my Cheshire country parks. Easy but not thin or weak, good tropical notes here. Pretty good low alcohol brew.

Asked for a third, guy pulled a pint, but apologised and repulled a third. Cafe Beermoth gets a customer service tick tonight. So does this hazy watery tropical fruit effort.

Cask @ Smithfield Market Tavern, Manchester. Heavy tasting clear golden with no head but a welcoming glow. There's a good nose before a bland taste here
