Stockport Beer Festival 2026 Beer#19. Clear golden coloured brew. Hopped character, easy, fashionable amongst session brews I guess as tasty enough.

Handpull cask at the Brewery Tap, Wrexham. Mid-brown, fairly translucent, a thin khaki head. Chocolatey aroma, a little bit of coffee, maybe even some light floral notes. The taste is sweet, more chocolate and touches of stone fruit, light bitterness on the finish. Body is thin but not too much so, thin carbonation. Decent.

Clear burnished gold beer, small but tidy pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Smooth malts, a little dry, a touch of natural grain. Hops bring light cooling pine and a decent slightly ripe orange, tangy as well. Light and semi dry finish. Not bad at all.

G in Wales means Geraint Thomas, surely a Sir G in the future? In the present this Dr. G is a clear golden ale and goes down the palate with ease, and has a sessionably crisp keg texture. A hopped pale ale with quite a dry finish, there's light fruit available.

The initials of this beer if it was in Welsh would be CGC. Settles a clear golden colour and has a very sessionable texture and taste. A gently hopped brew with a mild sweetness to proceedings.

A second beer of the day in Wales, first Welsh brewed one, in my second Magic Dragon pub ever visited. It's not so much a house, more like a tower-block of coffee, as it's extremely potent, full in flavour, and lingers long with a dryness.

Bottle gift from my brother β drank at home. Pours a very deep chestnut with a sizable frothy tan head. Thereβs butter, caramel and fudge in the aroma. In the mouth it is surprisingly sharp at first, but with some underlying sweetness. Flavour starts off with malts and chocolate, but citrus notes come soon after. Later there are hints of oranges, caramel and bitter hops. Bitterness is more pronounced in the finish. This is decent.
