Golden amber with a frothy off-white head and a mellow brown sugar aroma. Fresh with bitter hops up front, sweet malt behind and a dry bitter finish.

Despite knowing the Blackpool Eye is reinforced glass the brain still tells you to test it out before standing on it for the first time as I found out up the tower. Back down on the ground this beer soon followed. Near black slightly understated stout taste but plenty of mildly milky roasted in aroma.

Lots of loose change is slotted into coin push machines on seafront amusements and on piers' like in Blackpool where I found this beer. These were invented by Albert Crompton in Kent in 1964. Hazy blonde with a creamy head, it's session strength and very tropical fruity. Good stuff.

Blackpool's heyday as a seaside town is often seen as the 1930's as decline in numbers set in after the war, however visitor numbers nearly 100 years later show there are now over three times as many people visiting annually than the 7 million to the destination a century ago. Cloudy, slightly dank yellow colour. Tropical fruit, oaty style flavours to match.
gave a cheers!

Blackpool's Pleasure Beach now has a ticketed entry system, however previously anyone could walk around the park, with entry to each ride accessed by ripping off the relevant level of token from a pre-bought token sheet. Clear golden with a small head. Fair west Coast style, good nose, lesser in taste.
gave a cheers!

Blackpool's Golden Mile is a mecca for fast food, sweets and the traditional fish & chips with ketchup, sauces and mustard! Gourmet is not on the menu! Golden with minimum haze and a creamy head. Hoppy with decent amounts of tropical fruit available in both aroma and taste.
gave a cheers!

Cask (gravity) at Victoria, Derby. Pours almost black with no head whatsoever. The aroma has roast malts and cake plus hints of liquorice. In the mouth it is quite sweet with a creamy texture but also somewhat thin. Flavour has roasted malts, chocolate cake and hints of coffee with traces of cherries and raspberries coming through later leading to a fruity finish. This is decent.
