Early evening. The almost ‘secret’ location of this pub means it is less overcrowded than some of those nearby, and I even found a seat on which to enjoy my second beer.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Woodforde's - Flagondry3.60GoodHarmless session beer. Raised half a star by perfect condition here and by having nice, if hardly prominent, hops.
Brains - The Solution6.00GoodStrong, dark brown beer with roast and chocolaty tastes. I didn’t think the balance was quite there.

This is, I think, my first ever visit here. Rather pleasant on a quiet Monday evening.

Another swift visit. Not very busy but a nice interior. London does have some nice old pubs.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Belhaven - Black Scottish Stout4.20GoodBlack, soft, slight roasting, hint of sweetness, hint of red fruit (of vinegar - hard to tell which)
