Called in for a quick Sunday evening drink, after tea. Met a few friends there, the pub had a few locals in and had a good atmosphere.

Came here from the Duck, two festivals on the same day.......mmmmmmmm. A much wider selection here and a much better choice. Quiet when we arrived but soon became busy.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - White Dwarf | 4.30 | | Very pale, crisp and hoppy, would never guess it was a wheat beer, very nice with a good dry finish. |
| Mauldons - Black Adder | 5.30 | | Dark and bitter with a strong roast taste, full bodied with a long finish |
| Castle Rock - Black Gold | 3.50 | | A dark mild, very nice, quite hoppy for this style. |
| Arundel - Castle | 3.80 | | Nice, some hops with an underlying sweetness |

Walked over the hills from home and got here about 12ish. Warm, friendly welcome, sat in the beer garden where the landlord was sticking up posters advertising the Barham Beer Fest to be held at the pub on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd August.

| Black Sheep - Best Bitter | 3.80 | | Landlady poured off about half a pint before serving mine. Nice malt but also a fresh hop at the end, really pretty good standard bitter. |

A few locals were at the bar and the pub felt empty due to it's high ceilings. The fireplace had Mackleston of Hythe cut into it.
