WhoScoreWhenNotes
Philip PirripGood17 Apr 2024 Just a tad off a 4* mark
Philip PirripAcceptable02 Aug 2023 Drinkable but run of the mill condition alas. 10 cask ales on during quiet midweek is too many
Philip PirripPoor10 Aug 2022 1st taste seemed OK but then followed realisation it was just on the turn. Slooshes of lemonade covered up the crime
Philip PirripAcceptable01 Aug 2022 First out for a while and tasted sweetish not really like Harvey's BB at all
Philip PirripGood16 Sep 2019
Philip PirripGood16 Sep 2019 2nd one bordering on excellent as being a tad cooler
Philip PirripUndrinkable20 Aug 2018 First sips turned my nose upwards, then saw cask being changed, which explained the unpleasant taste of my pint. Swapped for a new-cask pint with good grace, once pulled through
Philip PirripAcceptable20 Aug 2018 Replacement pint was fresh and still not Harvey's as it should be (if anyone can be sure how it should be!)

Philip PirripExcellent13 Apr 2024 Harvey's Best as it should be
Philip PirripGood08 Jul 2023 OK but far from its best - a rather sharp bitterness this one
Philip PirripExcellent24 May 2023 Ideal balance between this ale's possible extremes of bitterness and fruitiness
Philip PirripAcceptable19 Apr 2023 Turned out to be last from the cask. Sometimes this can be really great with Harvey's, alas this was quite mediocre with very slight haze
Philip PirripExcellent19 Apr 2023 First out a new cask - what a difference - crystal clear and superb compared with last out of old cask
Philip PirripExcellent20 Jan 2023 At the more fruity taste end of its possible flavour range
Philip PirripExcellent15 Nov 2022 Lovely head and flavour. Why can't other pubs keep the same beer so well
Philip PirripNot Tried10 Nov 2022
Philip PirripExcellent09 Nov 2022 As it should be
Philip PirripAcceptable28 Jun 2022 Last one out of cask and suffered from it. Bland, hardly recognisable as Harvey's BB
Philip PirripGood28 Jun 2022 First out of a new cask. Perhaps inevitably a bit fresh
Philip PirripGood08 Jan 2022 New cask - a bit fresh. Given gratis "for Christmas". Now usually £5.20 pp
Philip PirripExcellent16 Nov 2021 Now £5.10 pp before CAMRA discount. A massive hike since last visit

AlenomoreExcellent30 Jul 2012 We all thought this was in top condition again.
AndrewGood18 Oct 2009 Served cold and with the odd floater in it but it was nice and refreshing and tasted of Harveys.
BlairGood13 Feb 2009 Not as good as it should be, but it was a lot better than I expected of a beer from this place. Malty and yeasty with an ever so slight whiff of vinegar, but the 2nd pint onwards didn't have the vinegary whiff.
