Swift pint early evening en-route to South Bermondsey.
The pub was heaving inside and out, mainly with suits. Not a tie in sight however - wow things have changed so much in the City, not.

It’s around 15 years since my brief time as a regular in here when Andy Bishop was Guv’nor. My first visit since the area has been swept up by City expansion.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adnams - Ghost Ship | 4.50 | | A tasty pint in great condition. Mellow and mature. |

Evening. Local CAMRA AGM in upstairs function room. Range of national brews only which is uninspiring. Superb buffet but unhealthy as buffets always must be.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA | 3.80 | | At £4 pp I made one last all meeting through. £3.40 would be competitive |

Third pub on crawl. Busy with early evening office workers. Uninspiring range of beers.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belhaven - Caledonian Deuchars IPA | 3.80 | | Used to be a favourite of mine, now nothing like I remember but I don't think the pub can take any blame. On the positive side the first beer of the day served at correct temperature! |
