Stod Fold - Amber

This really is a haphazard approach which is quite reprehensible but perhaps it means I am entering a phase of only writing about the good ones? And today is one of those. I am out with my wonderful Stripeycat, at the White Lion in Hebden and all the ales are eminently quaffable, a phrase that has as much reoccurrence as "so".... 

So, I opted for Stod Fold Amber as recommended by Stripecat who'd tried their Blonde at Calans Micropub (a must visit).

So onto the beer.

It's is a proper Yorkshire bitter, one that is both malty and creamy. Not dissimilar to my beloved Theakstons XP.

It has the makings of a good session beer. Good with pub lunches but equally an evening of fun could be had. 

A real keeper and glad I chose it... Even against the strong competition of Timmy Taylor's and Black Sheep.
