I had the chosen beer last night. It was full of biscuity malt
flavours (really very rich and full of them) with just a hint of fruit
on the edge.

And it may well have been the last one in london.

This was at The Rake, near Borough Market.

The beer was very good, with a suitably tacky type-face for the gimicky
logo.  However, I'm not sure I'd want to drink a whole bottle of it.
It's quite strong, almost a barley wine, and while it is very tasty, I
wonder if it might be a bit one-dimensional.  The biscuit malt was
*really* strong, and I didn't get much else from it.

I don't know this beer but I think you should get along to a proper (UK) Beer 
Festival and try the porters.

I'd be surprised if it wasn't for sale in one of the more Jewish
shopping areas. Brent Street in Hendon and Finchely Road in Temple
Fortune both come to mind, I live almost on the former, so I'll have a
look next time I'm wandering down there.

I've already been to a CAMRA beer festival and was quite pleased.
