Camden Brewery beers 1922-1924

It seems like ages since I last posted a table of beer details. So here goes. This time it's the turn of the Camden Brewery.

There's a single volume of their brewing records in the Courage archives. There's nothing wildly exciting about them. They brewed a PA, a couple of Milds, a Stout and two Strong Ales. Nothing too different from what you see at the large London brewers like Barclay Perkins or Whitbread. Except for the Stout. There's no brown malt in it.

Why I have I pulished this now? I have my reasons. Hionestly. It's all to do with my current book project. One of my current book projects. If I don't get interrupted, I'll be able to make an announcement next week. If I do get interrupted (or find something more interesting) who knows when I'll tell you anything.

Milds. Almost forgot about the Milds. Interesting range of colours across the three Milds. The weakest, XX is about the colour of Bitter. The strongest, M, is in that no-man's-land of colour, around 40 EBC. Not quite dark, but not really pale either. There was no truly Dark Mild in Camden's range.

Here's the table. Hope you find it educational, or at least distracting.

I realise it's a bit wide. But I though you might appreciate all the grist details.
