Lunchtime on a rainswept Yorkshire Friday.We enjoyed our haddock and chips while our son nursed a hangover, and pondered the nightmarish qualities of pea and ham soup.Busy with couples dourly enjoying their beer and meals.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timothy Taylor - Golden Best (was 3.5%) | 3.40 | | Always a pleasure to drink this:comforting,malt driven.A northern Larkins Traditional? Served a bit on the cold side-would have been 4/5. |
| Saltaire - Raspberry Blonde | 4.00 | | I had rarely come across a fruit infused beer before, and had never tried one,so I was curious.Smelt of raspberries,but tasted of a struggle between dryness and sharpness. A bit heavy on the raspberries but intriguing. |

Early doors on a Saturday lunchtime.The pub rapidly filled up with groups of diners and a handful of regulars. Regular events are run, including flower arrangeing and "meet the brewer". Also acts as a deli.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hambleton - Headless Horseman | 4.00 | | Not another Halloween Horror! In fact, this was a decent Yorkshire pale 'n' hoppy with a good blast of citrus that went well with the excellent Haddock 'n' chips that I enjoyed. |
| Black Sheep - Best Bitter | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
| Greene King - Gangly Ghoul | 4.20 | Not Tried | Had a taste of my father in law's. A fairly bland dark beer. |
