Just a quick visit before boarding the 6:40 Grand Central train to London. Considerably busier in here than the other Wetherspoon pub nearby.

Good beer range.
BeerABVScoreNotes
BrewDog - Edge3.20PoorFirst tasting since abv was boosted from 2.7%. Gone are the the dark fruity flavours, body and smooth mouthfeel replaced by dominant chocolate and not much else. A change for the worse for one of my all time favourites.
