Beer review: Kilt Lifter Scottish amber ale, by Four Peaks Brewing

Verdict: OK, if a little disappointing. Probably don't buy again, but don't turn down a freebie or if it's the only dark beer in the cooler either.

Beer review: Guinness Draught Stout, in pub cans, Guinness Brewery

Verdict: Tasty, but no longer one of my favorites. Buy for corned beef meals, but otherwise choose other beers.

Fire Captain Irish Red Ale by Horse & Dragon Brewing Company. Verdict - tasty.
