Colin and I moved on here for a mid-evening call. It was an interesting transition time – all beer bellies, beards and plastic bags on arrival, by the time we left, the emphasis had switched to high heels, short skirts and cleavage.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brentwood - Project Venus - Sugar & Spice | 4.60 | | A golden bitter, dominated by a spicy, ginger taste, with the supposedly balancing honey flavours very much in the background. |
| Brentwood - Lumberjack | 5.20 | | A strong, brown, fruity, malty bitter with a bitter aftertaste. |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Hook Norton - Double Stout | 4.80 | Not Tried | |
| Greene King - Ruddles Best (was 3.7%) | 3.40 | Not Tried | |

The pub is found in Chelmsford, Essex, CM2 0NA.
A substantial, town centre, JD Wetherspoon pub In New London Road. It contains all the usual Wetherspoon features, housed in a single large rectangular room. It has a rather featureless decor. Recent excavations on the site of this former department store (the former Bolingbroke and Wenley store) unearthed several finds, including an ivory tuning peg from a medieval musical instrument, probably a lyre or small harp, played by troubadours of the time.
We have visited this pub once, seen 7 different beers and tried 2 of them.
