Here at 12.00 on the first of the Ratebeer.com Oxford pub crawl. I liked the atmosphere and architecture here.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| White Horse - Giant | 4.30 | | First beer of the day, and what a great way to start. Chestnut colour with thin beige head. Decent bitter with nice hop. Some syrupy malt, nutty flavours. Decent bitterness on finish. |
| White Horse - Oxfordshire Bitter | 3.70 | | Decent grassy little bitter. Nice dryness on the end. Bit of fruit, nice golden session bitter. |
| Brakspear (at Marston's Wychwood then at Banks's) - Oxford Gold | 4.00 | | Gold with lasting beige head. It’s a little fruity, but ultimately a rather dullish ordinary bitter. Bit of yeasty. But not great and just a little bland. |
