19:00 visit. Another place not done for four years. Not changed a lot either, still impressive. Quite busy all round too. A gbg entry 16 times previous in 1993-7/2001/2/4-12.
Bridgehouse - Heathcliff Stout | 5.00 | | Top class again, and all new, my first one from this brewer too. Too busy to note down any other ales here tonite. |

Only a few people in, but it was only just after 4pm. Some Dutch people here for the football. Pub seemed a bit tired, in need of a bit of TLC.

A busy Friday afternoon with regular customers and office parties. The hot pork and black pudding pies smelt wonderful, and Jason assures me that his was delicious.
Green Mill - Stellar Bitter | 4.00 | | Absolutely cracking pint. The barman made no mistake when I asked for a pint of Stellar, and told me this was an amazing beer. He was right. |

Quite a lovely interior and interesting garden. Quick stop off between New Oxford and the Microbar.
Greenfield - Over & Out | 4.00 | | Gold, lasting beige head. Diacetyl aroma, tasteless in mouth due to sparkler with more butter on the end. |
