En route to the Wenlock and just had to do this for the nursery rhyme. Never knew there was a middle verse about monkeys!

It’s a warm evening and almost every customer is sat outside. A Portobello Brewery beer also available.

|---|---|---|---|
| Inveralmond - Frisco Steamy | 4.40 | | A hazy, golden colour. Pleasant, hoppy, fruity tastes. Slight sour edge that maybe wasn’t meant to be there. |

I have been looking for this Adnams beer with part of the proceeds going to the Marine Conservation Society – so when I saw the pumpclip peering out of the window at me I decided to pop in for a half. Most customers in the large rear garden.

| Downton - Chocolate Orange Delight | 5.80 | | First rate - how do they "can" the chocolate orange aftertaste? Very clever |

| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Itchen Valley - Calypso | 4.10 | | Very bitter pale beer with little or no sweetness or malt character. Unbalanced and too bitter for my taste. My score 9/20. |

Fairly quiet after Christmas.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cropton (see also Great Yorkshire) - Darkangel | 5.00 | | Dark brown porter with quite a bitter taste but not much cherry flavour. Rather thin, fruity finish. My score 15/20. |

Busy on a Tuesday evening in the pre Christmas run up.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Pica Pica | 4.50 | | Smooth black oatmeal stout with a dry roast malt character. Some fruitiness in the finish. My score 16/20. |
14 Jun 2011 (Martin the Mildman)
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cropton (see also Great Yorkshire) - Wanderer (Mike Hall) | 3.50 | | Brewed by American master brewer Mike Hall at Cropton, this is a pale, quite hoppy bitter. Quite bitter but not too much citrus flavour and a dryish finish to make a refreshing low strength summer style beer. My score 15/20. |
