The evening was slowing down for me but felt this pub was still coming to life for the Friday night crowd. 4 doorman on duty - the most I have seen at a single pub venue for a very long time if not ever.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hook Norton - Double Stout | 4.80 | | First rate nearing perfect but not quite competing with my earlier Hopback Entire Stout. |
| Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Exmoor - Gold | 4.50 | Not Tried | |
| Goffs - White Knight | 4.70 | Not Tried | |
| Greene King - Ruddles Best (was 3.7%) | 3.40 | Not Tried |

| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bath Ales - Ginger Hare | 3.90 | | Amber beer with quite a strong ginger flavour, a little too intense for my taste. My score 12/20. |

Two visits saw a quieter morning then much busier on a Friday afternoon with 2 festival beers having changed.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lees (see also JW Lees) - Super Nova | 3.50 | | This is I suspect another dry hopped version of their mild, so a dark, malty base with a little hoppiness to balance things out. My score 16/20. |
| Bath Ales - Hefeweizen Hare | 4.70 | | Very pale, almost clear wheat beer, fairly sweet with a slightly sour and spicy taste in the finish. My score 14/20. |
