The brewery: "Set in the historic Yorkshire Village of Cawood (10 miles south of York and 4 miles west of Selby), the Jolly Sailor Inn has been providing hospitality since 1840. The current owners have been brewing their own beer since 2012, this follows a tradition of brewer/landlords based at the pub. The pub serves 6 real ales brewed by the Jolly Sailor Brewery (now based at the Olympia Hotel Selby)"
The beer: "Award winning Dark Ruby Mild. Beautifully mellow and palatable with a mesmerising ruby hue."
Nice drop this, the taste belied it's strength. Brewed just a few miles from where it was supped and very reasonably priced too. The first of three from JS.
