9 beers to start with but went down quickly. Pub too hot. Then too cold. Why? Jaipur went off b4 I got to it.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Batemans - Salem Dark Fruits | 4.40 | | I didn't enjoy a beer so fruity. But lynne did. |
| Theakston - Old Peculier | 5.60 | | Last pint out! Still good but not as i remember it. |
| Three Acre - Christmas Old Ale | 5.60 | | Had 2 of these. Very dry old ale. Not my sort of beer. But probably half the price of a similar beer any where else in Eastbourne tonight and in better condition. |

Visit to see Lynnes family and an overnight stay near the seafront. 9 guests on, all %5 or under and a lot more interesting than I found in most Eastbourne pubs. Our Barmaid got the prices wrong, gave us the wrong change, and needed sorting out.

2 visits over the weekend. Men without tops walking around the bar. Not welcome.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sambrook's - Powerhouse Porter | 4.90 | | £2.70 a pint |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | £3.25 a pint! Up from 3.15 on my last visit 4 years ago. What a rip off. Manager told me its even more in Brighton. So what? |

Late morning for T. Four times as many people in this, the first JD to open here. Good range on, including upcoming festival ales.

Excellent barstaff. Prices much higher than the Maidstone Spoons, but 6 'boring' beers on including Gloombar. Needs a decent anager to overhall to bring it up to a better standard.

The pub is found in Eastbourne, East Sussex, BN21 4QD.
This pub in Cornfield Road occupies what used to be the Cornfield Motor company building going on the sign painted on the wall above the door. By the mid 19th century, most of Eastbourne was owned by the Cavendishes (Dukes of Devonshire) and the Gilbert family. It was William, second Earl of Burlington, later seventh Duke of Devonshire, who saw Eastbourne's potential. He built the first sea wall and villas to entice wealthy visitors, and had the county surveyor, James Berry, draw up a plan for the town. Extensively expanded, almost doubling its size, in 2015 with an extension on the rear.
We have visited this pub 12 times, seen 26 different beers and tried 16 of them.
