Now called The Weather Station sadly has lost its cosy comfy feel from its previous incarnation as The Eldon Arms is now modern and trendy for a back street boozer however I liked it and added to the enthusiasm of the barman who proffered tasters of the three cask beers available I enjoyed my stay.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Brew York - Tonkoko | 4.30 | | This would've been 5 stars had it not been served so cold. Delicious chocolate and coconut nectar with a sensible ABV. |
| Swannay (formerly Highland) - Dark Munro | 4.00 | | Possibly a 4 star but my taste buds were still reeling from the superb Tonkoko. |
| Wild Weather - Sleepy Joe's | 4.20 | | Traditional English bitter, half a star lost as too cold. |
