A delayed rating from June last year. Can from La Manducateca, Bilbao. Golden with a head. Hoppy, slightly strong - its Belgian styling is perhaps its least stated characteristic, but some is evident.

On this day in 1987 West German Mathias Rust managed to evade the consequences of several alarms when he flew into Soviet Air Space, eventually landing his light air craft in Moscow's Red Square. As clear blonde as it gets, easy hoppy character to go with it. Session material.

Can from Cooperative Supermarket, Cromer. First beer bought from a shop on a week spent in Norfolk, consumed on the edge of town before heading into it to explore. Golden with a head. Strong tasting IPA, although fruits of the tropical variety are evident too. These are more stated in taste than aroma

Slow tickers club application here with this one - almost a year since I was in Normandy having this one. Tap pour La Porte Ouvert, Rouen, not too far away from the magnificent Cathedral. Golden with a carbonation and a very small head. Fine regional ale with lots of bubble-gum sweetness in both aroma and taste - and it lingers, but not overdone or overbearing. Clearly strong but not too much impact in taste here.

Taken eleven months to finally getting around to rating this brew. Tap at the riverside Biga Baga bar in San Sebastian. Golden with a head. Deeper tasting hoppy brew, certainly sessionable in terms of strength, but does feel a tad heavy in texture for this. Has a glow, a carbonation, and some sugars.

Kirsty McColl's biggest solo hit 'A New England ' was extended by its writer Billy Bragg especially for her as it was deemed too short in its original length. There's only keg pours in this venue but this 'New England' is a hazy tropical fruit one with pine, and a crisp one from its tap. Slightly over-carbonated making it somewhat bland.

Deadication beer to Eutropius - the Bishop of Orange - died on this day in 475. Very hazed amber-orange brew. Mango, not orange is the main fruit though as you might expect and is light but part of an exotic fruitiness that exemplifies aroma and taste.
