Over the next two weeks we'll be posting up the nine sponsored real ales or real ciders which will appear at the LAN for your enjoyment at a scrumptious £1.50 per pint.  This is the fourth post in the series.

REAL ALE #4


Darwin's Origin by Salopian Brewery

Sponsored by: Myopic Sniper & Penguin on behalf of the M4$H3d clan (mashedclan.co.uk)
Thank you M4$H3d, Myopic Sniper & Penguin!

Darwin's Origin is a specially brewed ale for 2009 to celebrate the bicentennial of Charles Darwin’s birth in Shrewsbury.  It's a copper-coloured beer with a 4.3% ABV, that evolves with a pronounced hop character which leads to a refined malt finish.  It's won multiple medals and awards, including:

CAMRA GBBF Best Bitter - Silver Medal winner 2016
SIBA National Champion Best Bitters Gold 2015
SIBA National Champion Beer 3rd Overall 2015
CAMRA Champion Best Bitter of Britain 2014
3rd overall CAMRA Champion Beer of Britain 2014

Amongst the very many beers that dMw tasted at this year's GBBF, this was the one we rated the highest!
