Late evening visit. Rarely on my radar but thought I'd make a swansong visit. Now in a row of boarded up properties. Walked in but had closed at 10pm so assume has given up the ghost as the demolition ball beckons.

Apparently Monday night is a quiet night. Not here – 18 cask beers available and standing room only.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Twickenham (also uses sub-brand Old Hands) - Mosaic Pale | 3.20 | | I’ve enjoyed recently a few golden beers hopped with Mosaic and this one might be the best of the lot. Dry-hopping gives masses of fruity hop flavours and there is an extra dimension too from the addition of ginger. |
| Dorset Brewing Company - Tank Top | 4.80 | | Amber in colour. Intense US hop flavours on a solid malt base. Really good I thought. |

12:00 Lunch stop. Almost every customer had luggage, the pub obviously makes a good waiting room. Most tables had reserved signs from 18:00 so probably best avoided on Friday evenings if you want a seat.

Late afternoon to mid evening work re-union and birthday group. Although always an impressive range of real ales here, on this visit almost every beer I had was lacklustre, hazy and did not possess the whizzbang moreishness I expect. When a large group has settled in it is difficult to get them to move on.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windsor & Eton - Kohinoor Jubilee Commonwealth Indies Pale Ale | 4.50 | | First pint of this was best of the visit but this was in a sea of mediocracy |

| Sambrook's - Junction | 4.50 | | |
| Banks's - Sunbeam | 4.20 | | |
| Windsor & Eton - Kohinoor Jubilee Commonwealth Indies Pale Ale | 4.50 | | 2nd one sourish and lacking life |
