Anyone a fan of Shepherd Neame bottled Ales

I'm usually as you can't get the stuff on tap up here, but I'm just bought a couple of bottles of "Master Brew" which I havent tried before and its very unsatisfactory. Back to the Spitfire....

Fullers ESB takes some beating.

Prior to the Master Brew disappointment, I had just finished off a bottle of Fullers Honeydew original which was very tasty.

ESB is absolute necture and I'm quite partial to the odd Bishops Finger.

RUDDLES - the best.
Can you get Harveys in bottles down there - I have only had it in pubs.

Was this thread inspired by the Word Association game or is it just a coincidence?

Harveys do some great bottled beers, I like their Christmas Ale, Bonfire Boy and even their Nut Brown. They also do one off brews for special occasions like when Lewes had it's big flood.
Shepherd Neame is the oldest brewery in the country, they do some nice draught brews. My favourite brew remains a nice pint of Abbot though from Greene King, nice and bitter, hoppy and with a long finish.
