I have 45 minutes before a train from Peterborough to London, and this pub seems the logical waiting room. Quiet in the late afternoon.
Oakham - Citra | 4.20 | | Pale gold and slightly hazy. Lucious, citrusy hop tastes. |
Green Jack - Oakademy of Excellence Guest Brewer "Peach Wheat Ale" for Oakham | 3.90 | | Golden-coloured and clear. Very peachy smell. Very peachy taste too. A touch sweet. |
