A pleasant, multi-roomed pub with a pleasing line-up of local beers. But, mindful of Philip Pirrip’s less than gushing reviews, I cautiously ordered a couple of halves. Just as well they were not full pints, as beer condition was very disappointing.
Full Moon - Hopdance | 3.90 | | Pale and citrus-hoppy, but warm and a bit flat. |
Long Man - Best Bitter | 4.00 | | Copper-coloured, warm and a bit sour. |
Dark Star - American Pale Ale (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 4.70 | Not Tried | |
Heritage (formerly William Worthington Brewery) - E | 4.80 | Not Tried | |
Long Man - Long Blonde | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
King Beer (formerly W.J. King) - Sussex Downs Ale | 5.10 | Not Tried | |

Last knockings for me but still new customers arriving as sounded as if some live music was on here.
Long Man - Long Blonde | 3.80 | | |
Long Man - Best Bitter | 4.00 | | Asked for a taster which made me splutter so declined a larger measure |
