Very busy on a Friday evening. No tables available so stood at the end of the bar.
| Harviestoun - Old Engine Oil | 4.50 |  | Nice and thick and malty with dark chocolate and coffee flavours and some fruity hop in the finish. My score 16/20. |

03 Nov 2012 (Martin the Mildman)
Very busy with late lunch diners on a Saturday afternoon.
| Weltons - Autumn Shades | 4.40 |  | Deep golden ale with a bittersweet flavour mainly from amber malts rather than hops. Dryish finish. My score 14/20. |
04 Jun 2011 (Martin the Mildman)
| Weltons - Chanctonbury Ring Oatmeal Stout | 5.60 |  | Dark brown stout which promises more than it delivers. Rather thin with some maltiness but also some hop bitterness. The finish is dryish and fruity. My score 15/20. |
19 May 2011 (Martin the Mildman)
Busy mid evening on a Thursday with all seats in use.
| Nethergate (was Nethergate Growler for a while then name reverted) - Mary's Ruby Mild | 4.50 |  | Bittersweet strong dark mild with toasty malt flavours and a fairly bitter finish. My score 15/20. |
02 Apr 2011 (Martin the Mildman)
Busy on a Saturday lunchtime mainly with passing travellers.
| Weltons - Chocolate Mild | 3.90 |  | Rather disappointing in that this wasn't very chocolatey at all. Just a quite bitter, malty mild with a dryish finish. My score 15/20. |
| Cairngorm - Roggen | 4.30 |  | Amber brew with a rather unbalanced bitter flavour. Little maltiness evident. The finish is astringent. My score 13/20. |
01 Apr 2011 (Ian)
Always has a good spread of the festival beers on. A table of local retired blokes were singing old songs. This was at midday.
| Cairngorm - Roggen | 4.30 |  | Good malts, good condition. Really enormously drinkable. |
| Weltons - Chocolate Mild | 3.90 |  | Smoky bacon rather than chocolate for me. Fine. |
| Leeds - Doubting Tom | 4.00 |  | The Sorachi Ace hop on this makes it very lemony and slightly tart. |
