We arrived not long after 17.00 opening, another group already occupying one of the two tables thus we parked ourselves at the free one. Friendly welcome and buzzing atmosphere.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| XT Brewing - No. 4 Session Amber | 3.80 | | Tropical fruits for this not over sweet malty broth |
| Vale - Sail Away | 4.00 | | Dry and crisp with a hoppy bite, superb! |

Just after 5 - just opened. Camra discount offered with no prompting. Good chat with the landlord and one other customer.
Can't believe Mr Pirrip has not visited this one yet.
Will add beers later - 3 new ones XT1 the best of them.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| XT Brewing - XT1 | 4.20 | | Very nice blonde. |
| Longdog - Wobbly Whippet | 5.00 | | Good body and flavour although a little on the sweet side. |
| Itchen Valley - Pride of the Valley | 3.80 | | Described as a hazel bitter. Not really to my taste. |
