All reviews are entirely subjective and should not be used for scientific purposes, primarily because this blog contains no science.

Free beer will probably be reviewed more favourably.

Broughton Old Jock Ale

'Old Jock Ale' conjures up images of a rugged, somewhat grumpy, elderly chap who you wouldn't wish to cross. The beer, on the other hand, is warm, welcoming and moreish. Rich and ruby tasting, I could happily drink this with a hearty helping of mashed potatoes!

This is a strong drink at 6.7%, but you tend not to notice it because of it's terrific flavour; It creeps up on you slowly as you drain the bottle. But this is a gretting from a dear friend in a Christmas-time pub, not a nasty surprise in the slightest.
