#13 - Shepherd Neame - Bishops FInger
To my mind this is an excellent beer. Pleasantly malty with a smooth crisp flavor. It is fruity as opposed to nutty, but rich enough to pull it off. A hint of coffee and caramel help it on its way. Possible criticisms include a faint metallic taste and the seemingly frequent complaint with beers this famous that they have somehow become normal or unremarkable. Most likely this is simply the result of continued success and a host of newer breweries desperately seeking to imitate. All in all, I would happily drink another, either on tap or in the bottle and give it a firm 7.5/10.
