Early Sunday evening and not busy.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Great Heck - Christopher | 4.50 | | Described sometimes as a Golden Ale, but actually quite hoppy and bitter. Good hops too, Columbus. |
| Bristol Beer Factory - Fortitude | 4.00 | Not Tried |

Mid evening - busy and very noisy inside and out. Two other beers on - too dark to note.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Moor - Unfined Confidence | 4.60 | | Strange brew. |

Very quiet in here, this being the afternoon of a Bank Holiday Monday. Just one cask beer available.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| XT Brewing - 13 | 4.50 | | Reddish-amber in colour. Both fruity and bitter. |

Early evening and the place was pretty busy with a lot of people eating. We came in for the sourdough pizzas mainly but the beer selection was good. Cool little place, although there were a fair few hipsters dotted around the place.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Camden Town - Ink (KeyKeg) | 4.40 | | Very easy drinking stout, went down very swiftly. |
| Mordue - Breakfast Pale | 4.50 | | A coffee, oatmeal pale ale. I like Mordue beers and this one is great. |
| Tiny Rebel - FUBAR | 4.40 | Not Tried |
14 May 2016 (Jack William)
Afternoon - not busy.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rooster's - Yankee | 4.30 | | Very nice hoppy aftertaste. |
| Tiny Rebel - White Lake | 5.00 | | Badged as an "amplified white mild" strange brew - wouldn't recommend it. |
| Cloudwater - Pale | 3.70 | Not Tried |

Sunday afternoon, fairly quiet but some rather good chill out music suits the time of week. I note my 500th different beer since joining the site - and it was rather good.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Celt Experience (now brands are owned by Evans Evans) - Silures | 4.60 | | I like the Amercian style beers - not very subtle - but good bitte hoppy flavour. Had to ask for a top-up - not paying £4.40 for a short pint. |
| Howling Hops (Brewed at Hackney Wick) - Running Beer | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Moor - Ported Amoor | 4.70 | Not Tried |

mid afternoon - sunny outside, cool inside. moderately busy.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| XT Brewing - Animal Brewing Dachshund | 4.60 | | would have score excelllent if it hadn't been 1/2 inch short. |
| Rooster's - Buckeye | 3.50 | Not Tried |
13 Jun 2015 (Jack William)
Mid Saturday afternoon - handful in but increased, especially outside as the sun came out.
Had to ask for the pint to be topped up every time.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mordue - Killswitch | 5.00 | | complex flavours with a very moorish aftertaste |
| Grain - Best Bitter | 4.20 | | |
| Big Smoke - Bonfire | 4.50 | | A really good bitter bite and full bodied - unfortunately it was quite cloudy. |
26 May 2015 (Stephen Harris)
With quite a big group of friends and acquaintances (I think they are all Scoopgen devotees) for one of a recent series of ‘launches’ of Battersea’s new Mondo Brewing Company. Four of that brewery’s beers on key-keg and one on cask, plus a liberal sprinkling of people around in Mondo tee-shirts.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Rooster's - Maypole | 3.70 | | Tasty. A sharp, pale beer flavoured with Elderflower. |
| Mondo - Kemosabe IPA | 6.40 | | From key-keg. Hop-filled, full-on, US-style IPA. Full of fierce Columbus, Centennial and Cascade hop flavours. |
| Mondo - Peckham Rye | 6.60 | | Cask conditioned. A bit cloudy. Reddish-brown in colour. Lots of rye tastes, perhaps a bit light on hops. |
| Mondo - Rider Pale Ale | 4.60 | | From key-keg. A cloudy, golden colour. Citrus-fruity, sharp and bitter tastes. Dry finish. |
| Mondo - Dubbel Trubbel | 7.00 | | From key-keg. I guess there is a joke in the name, for this is no Dubbel – more of a Tripel I think. Cloudy, golden, obvious Belgian yeast tastes. |
| Mondo - James’ Brown Ale | 5.00 | | From key-keg. Hoppy, US-style Brown Ale. |
| Stod Fold - Amber | 4.20 | Not Tried |
