We enjoyed lunch in the bar of this interesting building, sitting by the open fire.

North Yorkshire - Archbishop Lee's Ruby Ale4.00ExcellentAn interesting dark malt led beer,with the slight sourness that I look for in Incubus or Late Red when on form.
North Yorkshire - Golden Ale4.60GoodBadged as "Black Swan Golden Ale". A very pale beer, served hazy. Being a kindly soul, and seeing Norrth Yorks is an Organic brewery, I decided that it was unfined.Tasted fine, with a good deal of hops about it.
