Quiet, for a while I was the sole occupant apart from the barmaid and pub dog. More punters arrived just before noon as I left.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Dawkins - Master Mild4.30GoodRuby/brown mild with a bittersweet character with some malt flavour. A little fruity hop in the dryish finish. My score 15/20.
Severn Vale - Luverly Jub'lee4.20Not TriedAnother jubilee beer still doesn't divert me from the mild.

Quite a few locals in on a Saturday lunchtime.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Kelham Island (probably brewed by Thornbridge now) - Night Moves4.00ExcellentDark mild brewed in conjunction with Sheffield CAMRA members. Designed to be a chocolate and orange mild, the citrus orange just dominates over the chocolate malt to give quite a fruity and hoppy finish to the beer. My score 16/20.
