Busy. Mostly local trade. Foster dog, Bruno, didn't settle so had to sit on the harbour wall. Oh, hardship.

Busy - mostly local trade.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Siren Craft - Suspended in Sabro | 4.00 | | Great 'new' hop in an ultra-hazy beer. Easy drinking but with a depth of flavour. |
| Box Social - Setting Fire to Sleeping Giants | 3.50 | | This didn't quite work. Interesting but with an astringent finish. 2* maybe. |
