Very busy for a sunday at 6pm. Good atmosphere.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Adnams - Green Bullet4.60GoodPale golden beer with thin head and body. Short in mouth but very different in flavours. A little spice, lemon and floral can easily be detected. Light interesting drinkable beer.
Itchen Valley - Godfathers3.80AcceptableAmber coloured beer with thick creamy head rapidly disappearing. Caramel and honey notes. Agree with previous review of a buttery texture to it. Goes flat quickly. Pretty non descript.
