Oakham ales?

[Major Fallout]

Has anyone tried Oakham CITRA or JHB?

[Fluffsri]

Citra is one of my faves.

Had a bottle of the Citra earlier on in the summer whilst camping. I was okay but nothing amazing. Perhaps it was due to it being served a bit on the warm side as I don't have beer chilling facilities whilst camping at the moment.

If you like CITRA, try this Brewdog, Ace of Citra.

Citra (M&S also sell it under their own label) and Scarlet Macaw are good.

Try the Green Devil, it's the hoppyer better version of Citra, nom nom nom...

[Milky400]

Green Devil is bloody lovely...... Oakham in my eyes are one of the better brewers available in supermarkets. I have a very good local micro brewery, and although £2.50 a bottle, id rather pay that to a local business that these mass produced brewers.

Support your local brewers

Thank you! Managed to find a bottle today.

I quite like it.

Yes, very partial to a bottle of JHB.

I drink then both, also recommend inferno if you can find it. I was lucky enough to have the Oakham brewery as my local for a few years and they really make some amazing beer. The JHB in particular has won a lot of awards.

They are local to me. JHB on draught is a superb ale. Unfortunately I rarely get to try it these days as their pub is in Peterborough, or Pottyborough as its become known.

Citra has been my favourite for a year or so

The Brewery Tap - probably the single best pub I have ever been to in my life. Amazing Thai food at pub grub prices, and awesome fresh ale (and lots of it!).

We've since moved way, but sometimes go back (100 miles) just to go to the Brewery Tap!

I can't get Oakham here, but M&S version is one of my absolute favourite bottles at the minute. Must be wonderful fresh from the hand-pump on a hot day after a decent walk. You'd have to have several though.

On my way to Worthing beer festival, fresh green devil on, nom nom nom

Similar to their Green Devil. Brilliant brewery, have never had a beer from them I didn't like a lot.
