Late evening visit. Not sure why I bother with this one, generally uncomfortable seating and an insistence on playing loud music when everyone seems to want to just talk.

| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Misprized (collaboration with Magic Rock) | 4.50 | | Rather sweet and cloying with liquorice notes. Would not want a second one |

5pm visit. Place was absolutely heaving, but still managed to get served within 2 minutes

| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Chiswick | 3.50 |  | Clear as a bell and intensely hoppy in a floral rather than citrus way, thankfully. Very nicely kept. |

Mid afternoon visit. Busy but found somewhere to prop up my pint in between gulps. Very well appointed loos by the way.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Chiswick | 3.50 | | Biscuity, hoppy little thing. Perfect conditioning. Lively without being rampant; someone here knows what they're doing. |

Central London may be pretty much devoid of Londoners this week, but it is teeming with tourists, and this new pub is rapidly becoming a major tourist magnet. Packed out in the early evening. Most were seeking out the quintessential English pub experience – a pint of Guinness and a plate of fish and chips, as dictated by their guidebooks. I liked the décor, if not the crowds.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Pride | 4.10 | | Not bad at all. |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - ESB | 5.50 | Not Tried | |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Chiswick | 3.50 | Not Tried | |
| Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - Jack Frost | 4.50 | Not Tried | |

Evening. Alright not the best time to visit with an abundance of once-a-yearers but this was just a noise shop with everyone everywhere shouting to each other. Worst pub experience of 2014 but I am sure it will be a goldmine for Fuller's.
