Lunchtime, nice to see it was busy enough on a wed lunchtime to keep the two bar staff busy.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Wadworth - Swordfish5.00ExcellentVery nice indeed.
Brains - SA Gold4.30GoodPleasant enough. Created new entry to reflect the now fashionable brewing process whereby beers are reduced in strength/dumbed down.

Lancaster - Blonde4.00GoodThe barman seemed to think it was the end of the barrel, but it was a perfectly acceptable pint, if nothing spectacular.
