Visits Details
01 Dec 2012 (Stephen Harris)
Lunchtime visit (although they do not serve lunch here). A few regulars in when I arrived at 1pm, pretty crowded by the time I left at 2:15pm. At the present time this pub effectively functions as the brewery tap for Shottle Farm Brewery.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Falstaff - Smiling Assassin | 5.20 | | Amber, strong, malty and sweetish. |
| Shottle Farm - SPA Shottle Pale Ale | 3.90 | | Golden in colour and a bit hazy. Thinnish, malty taste and a hint of sourness. I struggled a bit with this, but stop short of a ‘poor’ rating as I think much of the problem was with the condition rather than the intrinsic taste. |
| Tower - East Mill Bitter | 3.50 | | House beer brewed by Tower. A sweet malty, brown bitter. |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
| Whim - Hartington IPA | 4.50 | Not Tried | |
| Shottle Farm - Dilks | 5.00 | Not Tried |
