Ed Davy is drinking a Farne Island by Hadrian Border Brewery at The Jolly Fisherman
Cask
Really reminds me of Larkin's Traditional and Westerham Spirit of Kent... Must be packed full of Kentish hops.
Ed Davy is drinking an ETale or (Black Bull ETale) by Cheviot Brewery at The Black Bull
Reminds me of Cameron's Strongarm. Not sure if that's a regional thing? Very nice though. Rich and sweet to start, tempered by a spicy English hop finish.

Quite sweet to start, lots of toffee. Turns into a nutty and slightly spicy finish. Beautiful colour.

Ed Davy is drinking a Wandle by Sambrook's Brewery at The Camel
Had as a light and bitter with Courage Light Ale. Light bodied and sparkling. Tastes mostly of crisp English hops with a hint of Sambrook's yeast floating underneath. Lingering moderately bitter finish. All at a mere 3.5% when drunk this way.

Absolutely stunning. So much complexity and body, without straying into being heavy or cloying. The whiskey doesn't dominate the beer at all, just adds a nice smokey note in the background and a bit of tannin.
