|---|---|---|---|
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | | Fobbed massively on pulling the pint. I was at first worried if it was near the end of cask but proved to be really floral hopped on nose and taste. Odd! The mass agitation must have pushed the floral into the head |
| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 | | A chaser at 50p for a half. Thin but quite OK |

| Portobello - Wembeerly | 4.50 | Not Tried | Spurious reference to Block109 Brewing on the pumpclip |

| Elgood's - Blackberry Porter | 4.50 | | Poured by another staff member this 2nd pint was properly conditioned and presented and very enjoyable |
| Elgood's - Blackberry Porter | 4.50 | | 1st one poured totally flat, had to be enlivened with some dashes of lemonade. Odd as others here had pints with head and lacing |

| Shepherd Neame - Hop to the Future | 4.50 | | I was pleased I did not get any of the tropical or citrus named in the tasting notes. Instead a highly floral hopped nose and taste. How Shep's could be on its core range if it wanted |
