This must be the most genteel pub in the area. Very civilised.
Hogs Back - Biker | 3.40 | | A special brew for the Tour de France. The use of French hops gives a light and fragrant beer. |
Oakham - Citra | 4.20 | Not Tried | |

A pleasant and calm atmosphere in here. I’m always impressed by the friendly and efficient staff in this pub.

Early evening and space in the bar is limited by a well-attended office party. Prices have risen recently, but the landlady assured me that she had put the bulk of this on the lagers and continued to offer a CAMRA discount on the cask beers. Limited selection tonight.
Triple fff - Alton's Pride | 3.80 | | Firm malt body to this amber beer. |
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

Unusually quiet in here tonight and we enjoy the privilege of sinking into a pair of comfy armchairs.
Hogs Back - Surrey Nirvana | 4.00 | | A change from this brewery to find a beer that is pale in colour and where the flavour is hop-led. |
Adnams - Lighthouse | 3.40 | Not Tried | |
Dark Star - Darkness | 3.50 | Not Tried | |

A busy night here for the presentation of East London & City CAMRA’s East London Pub of the Year 2014 award. Generous hospitality with very tasty snacks and several free beers. Nice to meet up with some people I have not seen for a few months.
Vale - VPA | 4.20 | | Tasty, golden beer. |
Dark Star - Revelation | 5.70 | | Beautiful, hoppy beer. |
Burning Sky - Plateau (was 3.5%) | 3.40 | | Golden and hazy. Could perhaps have done with another day or two in the cellar. |
Colchester - No. 1 | 4.10 | | A dark bitter in very traditional style. |
Harvey's - Sussex Best Bitter | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

I’m surprised to discover that I cannot have been in here in the two and a bit years that I have been contributing to this website. Always a nice place to visit.
