Busy as expected lunchtime trade for this smaller than usual branch. A spot of light lunch washed down with a couple of pints kicking off today's 'tour'..

10:45 visit. Surreal! Exactly two years and two months after my last visit here, my first port of call again today. No change in this place at all. Limited on the ale front too.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Black Wolf (formerly Traditional Scottish Ales (TSA)) - Black Gold4.40ExcellentA new ale, or possibly a special for JD's, and a top tasting Stout, but, oddly, not listed on TSA's website.
Grainstore - Tupping Ale4.50Not Tried
Eagle (formerly Wells & Young's, formerly Charles Wells, formerly Wells) - Bombardier (was Bombardier Glorious English) (use Eagle entry now please)4.10Not Tried

Second port of call in Loughborough. Last time here was 2004 when it was newly opened. Nice enough with an average ale selection on. Busy for food and shoppers.

Mauldons - Black Adder5.30Not Tried
Nethergate (was Nethergate Growler for a while then name reverted) - Suffolk County Best Bitter4.00Not Tried
York (now brewed by and at Black Sheep) - Yorkshire Terrier4.20Not Tried
