Visits Details
19 Apr 2014 (Stephen Harris)
A mere seven years since my last visit to this large pub. We had plans for a bit of an evening crawl but soon got settled into some comfy chairs, and then ran in to an old friend by chance, so never moved on.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Great Heck - Black Jesus | 6.50 | | Wow. Thick, black, roasted malt and great hops. I dank more pints of this than was strictly necessary, given its high strength. |
| Jarrow - Last Ship | 5.00 | | Golden in colour. On the malty side. |
| Jarrow - Red Ellen | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
| Jarrow - Rivet Catcher | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Nethergate (was Nethergate Growler for a while then name reverted) - Hound Dog | 4.20 | Not Tried |
