BeerABVScoreNotes
Kirkstall - Dissolution IPA5.00AcceptablePale strong bitter with a dry citrus hop character and a dry, bitter finish. My score 14/20.

Not sure what this place wants to be, pub? wine bar? cafe?, Ice cream parlour? No matter the beer is good.

Quirky sort of place. Pub lunches from the integral delicatessen. Busy with diners. Good choice of beer.

Quiet on a Sunday afternoon.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Rooster's - Mild Mule3.90GoodDarker version of Wild Mule, therefore with high citrus hop content but also some dark malt and caramel flavour. My score 15/20.

Very quiet but it was out of food service hours.
BeerABVScoreNotes

Empty but that was probably because the road outside was in the progress of being ripped up but a wandering band of workmen.
