This triple ipa went down a treat - https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/to-ol-simcoe-mosaic/453540/
This Mikkeller Raspberry Berliner Weisse stood out as well - https://www.ratebeer.com/beer/mikkeller-hallo-ich-bin-berliner-weisse-raspberry/465983/
Trafalgar Wines probably has the best selection of Craft Beer in Brighton, though there's a number of other decent bottle shops in town these days.
However, I don't know my blonde beers that well. Steve at Trafalgar Wines is very knowledgeable and happy to help. I'm sure they'll be some input...
Did anyone make it to The Star's aged, strong and dark beer festival at the weekend?
Some cracking beers on - highlights were a 2014 Burning Sky Monolith, Beavertown Power of the Voodoo Triple IPA, a 2013 Dark Star Imperial Stout and the last cask of Hastings stout before they focus on keg...
Unfortunately as he was on a working trip he didn't get the chance to visit too many bars. However, he heartily recommends a bottle shop called Beer Temple and apparently both the beer and burgers at Kuma's Corner are sublime.
A friend of mine who is a craft beer nut spent a couple of weeks there last year and came back raving about it. I have asked him for some tips for you.
I'm popping up to Canden for the afternoon/ evening on 12 June and am looking for some pubs to visit.
Brewdog Camden is on the list - are there others worth bothering with? The Southampton Arms sounds pretty good.
3 top brews in the evening star today - burning sky - Flanders red, the kernel export stout and the Buxton black IPA . Good way to spend a bank holiday.
I had a wonderful 13% uk stout at Craft on Wednesday night. I think, it was a London Brewery. Best beer I've tasted in ages. I had 2/3's and now have no idea what it was called.
Buring Sky Monolith is on at the Star at the moment as well. I shall be attempting to visit both this evening.
Anyone sampled this thing of beauty yet? It's a bit gimmicky but I'll forgive, as it tastes divine.

Been on at The Star since the weekend.
EDIT: Just noticed it's a Brewdog collab.
This thread rather died a death. Everyone doing stoptober?
I'm making my first visit to The Euston Tap on Friday in transit from Brighton to Manchester - http://www.eustontap.com/
Looking forward to it immensely.
