First time I've risked a Friday evening in here for a while. ChrisE may be pleased to hear that the Friday night DJ thing has been dropped.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gun - Chummy Bluster | 4.40 | | A dark, chocolatey Best Bitter. If only there were more brewers around able to pull it off as well as this. |
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Cortado | 4.90 | | I had been assured that the coffee flavours here were subtle, but, personally, I found it overpowering. |
| Tap East - East End Mild | 3.50 | Not Tried | |
| Tap East - No. 6 Blonde | 4.10 | Not Tried | |
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Astryd | 3.80 | Not Tried | |

I was in here one hour and 29 minutes after touch down at Stansted Airport, which I think is a new personal best.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Redemption - Little Chief | 4.20 | | Littler than Big Chief and quite bitter. |
| Two by Two - Sabro Amarillo | 5.20 | | Great fruity/orangey hop flavours. |
| Redemption - Citrus Pale | 4.00 | | Citrussy, as one might expect. |
| Tap East - East End Mild | 3.50 | Not Tried | |

Evening visit for a pint whilst waiting for a train home, the noise from a music system was so loud that I wished that I had waited on the platform instead. At least the beer was good. There was also a Cardomom and Berry Milk Stout on offer but I forgot to note the brewer and ABV.
