It's really good too. Sadly I've never been able to make the Belfast festival any earlier than Saturday so last year that meant no Clotworthy, no Clanconnel and no Blue Monkey.

Yeah b...Hadn't heard of them, will look it up! <br />Yeah bottled copperhead appears to be new, well Asda say so in any case.<br /><br />As i said in my post, whisky cask aged clotworthy at Belfast last year was pretty special, did you get a chance to try it? Haven't yet been fortuitous enough to see Belfast Black on cask, but I really like Clanconnel blackbeersiveknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13293913182389157112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444372010882241548.post-42255509090754159732011-07-28T22:42:02.268+01:002011-07-28T22:42:02.268+01:00Well, Inishmacsaint beers are brewed in Co.

I'm a big fan of the keg version.<br /><br />Clotworthy is probably my favourite Irish beer, but it never seems to work on cask. There's a nice hop bite in the keg version, however.<br /><br />Conversely, while Belfast Black is a decent bottled beer, the cask version is stunning.The Beer Nuthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14105708522526153528noreply@blogger.com
