Large pub with some high table and booth seating. Quite busy when we visited.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| JW Lees (see also Lees) - Bitter | 4.00 | | The tightest sparkler I've ever seen. Pint presented like a pale cascading snow globe. Needless to say that stripped all the flavour out. |
| JW Lees (see also Lees) - MPA Manchester Pale Ale | 3.70 | Not Tried | |
| JW Lees (see also Lees) - Delta Wing | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| JW Lees (see also Lees) - Pioneer | 4.10 | Not Tried |

18:00 visit. A smattering of people about. I sat overlooking the Rochdale Canal in this lovely converted building, with Lee's choosing a name for this, an ex Umbrella factory, that is synonomous with the local weather? Previously a gbg entry six times in;2001-5/7
