A long time since I've seen such an array of quality beers at this pub and great to see so many people enjoying them.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Salopian - Kashmir | 5.50 | | Another beer that I wasn't keen on first time round. Still think it's a bit confused, nevertheless a good, strong citrus style beer. |
| Llangollen - Welsh Black Bitter | 5.50 | | Seem to remember being disappointed with this beer the first time I tried it. This was quite pleasant, nutty sweet and malty. |
| Titanic - Shugborough Farmers' Half | 4.80 | | Typically Titanic and a bit of an all rounder. Very nice. |

Usual sort of evening.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chapel - Babylon | 5.00 | | A bit different to the last time I tried this. Clean, fresh and full bodied with a good nuttiness and a little smokiness. |

Peaceful,relaxing end to the day.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Scarlet Macaw | 4.40 | | Typically Oakham. A good citrus bitter, seems to have lost some of its tropical flavours. |
| Waen - TWA | 3.70 | | On top form. A good reasonable session ale. |
| Blackwater (sub-brand of Salopian) - Hair of the Dog | 4.10 | | A beer with a very distinctive flavour probably best described as honey and kemon cough sweets. Pleasant enough. |
| Chapel - The Last Supper | 5.60 | | Strong and smooth. A little hazy but still good. |

Mini beer festival. Twelve ales on show, barbecue outside, entertainment inside, lots of people milling around. Good atmosphere.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crouch Vale - Best Bitter | 4.00 | | Good all rounder, excellent condition and presentation. |
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Jaipur | 5.90 | | Excellent condition, good but not one of my favourites - God knows why because it seems to be everybody elses. |
| Titanic - Sundeck | 4.30 | | Nothing special but nothing untoward. Typically Titanic. |
| Salopian - Darwin's Origin | 4.30 | | For me, the best beer on show tonight. Bags of flavour, a proper beer. |
| Lymestone - Seven Stone Weakling | 4.70 | | Strongish brown ale, quite sweet. Very drinkable. |

Quiet early evening.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Citra | 4.20 | | In my opinion the best of the Oakham portfolio at the moment. Must rate in my top ten beers ever. |
| Stonehouse - Station Bitter | 3.90 | | Superb condition, always consistent. Must be one of the most flavoursome session beers around. Now appearing at a Punch tavern near you. |
| Three Tuns - Stirling | 4.10 | | This is becoming a favourite of mine. Consistently good, an all round quality beer. |
| Six Bells - Leo | 4.30 | | A pleasant, standard bitter. Good condition. |

Quiet early evening.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Citra | 4.20 | | This was on top form and in my opinion the best of the Oakham portfolio. Crisp and clear a refined and cultured citrus bitter. Packed with flavour and served on gravity. Fabulous. |
| Chapel - Miracle | 4.40 | | This beer is evolving into something special and already winning awards at festivals. Good citrus and malt flavours with a slightly peppery aftertaste. Very good. |

Very quiet Saturday late afternoon.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tunnfield - Stiperstones | 3.70 | | Third time I've tried this and it was back to its original excellent flavours. Malt and hops in abundance and well balanced. A lot of taste for the ABV. Again bordering on exceptional. |
| Titanic - New World | 4.40 | | I enjoyed this. Yes, typically Titanic but there was some good malt and distinctive hop flavours that combined well together, good balance and refreshingly different. |
| Six Bells - Cancer | 3.90 | | Another decent monthly ale from this brewer. Light and hoppy, a refreshing session beer. |

Great to see and talk to so many locals. Are things looking up?
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Bishops Farewell | 4.60 | | On good form but wish they would give Citra a try! Or for that matter any one one of half a dozen other Oakham ales that are as good if not better than Bishop's Farewell. |
| Offa's Dyke - Barley Gold | 3.80 | | A couple of years ago, I wouldn't have even tried a beer from this brewery, so bad were they (in my opinion). This was good, a nice malty session bitter. |
| Chapel - Angel's Share | 4.00 | | Made with German hops - there was a good malty and hoppy character and the overall taste was very pleasing. A good bitter. |

Quiet at early doors.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Bishops Farewell | 4.60 | | On good form. |
| Three Tuns - 1642 Bitter | 3.80 | | Never disappointed with this tasty session bitter. Lots of flavour, good body and balance and well presented. |
| Salopian - Golden Thread | 5.00 | | On good form but still too lemony. |
| Chapel - Babylon | 5.00 | | Smooth, a little malt and you can taste the alcohol coming through. Not enough flavour. |

Few locals and a few non locals.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tunnfield - Stiperstones | 3.70 | | Another disappointment - nowhere near as good as previously. Shame. |
| Eagle (formerly Wells & Young's, formerly Charles Wells, formerly Wells) - Courage Directors (use Banks's entry now please) | 4.80 | | Total disappointment, nothing to commend this at all other than it was drinkable. |
