|---|---|---|---|
| Phoenix - Pale Imitation | 4.30 | | Pale beer, the overriding flavour is that of sweetness, from both malt and hop. The hoppiness is soft and fruity, the malt lingers in the finish. My score 16/20. |

Always interesting to watch the law students pretending to study in a pub.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Arundel - Prize Fighter | 4.60 | | Very biscuit full malty bitter. Some sour fruit on aroma leads to a rich full biscuit mouthfrel and then more sour hedgerow fruit on tangy finish. A well constructed best bitter. Decent beer |

| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wadworth - 125 Stout | 4.00 | | Dark ruby stout with some bitter roast malt flavour but lacking body with a rather thin and watery finish. My score 15/20. |
| Hydes - Plum Treat | 4.00 | | Amber fruit beer with a strong, sweet taste of plums. The base beer is malty with little hop presence throughout. My score 15/20. |

| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Butcombe - Old Vic Bristol Porter | 4.70 | | Different from a previous "Old Vic" this is a classic porter, dark ruby/black with toffee malt and hop bitterness combining to give a smooth and full flavoured beer. My score 16/20. |

Very quiet on a cold Saturday morning.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |

Quiet on a Saturday morning, so a quick breakfast and a swift half of my first Autumn 2010 festival beer was had.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maxim - Phoenix Rising | 4.50 | | Smooth and sweet with little hop character typical of a north east beer. My score 15/20. |
06 May 2010 (Martin the Mildman)
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Greene King - Ballot Box Beer | 4.50 | | Appropriate for election night, this is one of G.K's better efforts, golden in colour with lots of biscuity malt balanced by good hoppiness with a lingering grainy malty finish. My score 16/20. |

Normally has a decent selection of guest ales available and this was no exception. Simple 'Spoons about halfway down Holborn
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Naylor's - Roaring Ruby | 4.70 | | Very dark brown, lasting thin tan head. A bit like a fruity porter. This is pretty good. Excellent berry and slightly sour fruits with a bit of chewy chocolate. Excellent, lovely ruby beer. |
| Brewster's - Decadence | 4.40 | | Gold, thin off white head. Some decent citrus hop, very light, delicate blond ale with enough hop to make you want to drink again. Pretty good. |
| Marston's - Pedigree | 4.50 | Not Tried |
