Evening. The quiz over, the quizzers had left so very quiet.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Siren Craft - Broken Dream Breakfast Stout (superseded by 6.5% version) | 6.00 | | Had read glowing reviews of this beer but this example was flat and poorly conditioned |
| Arbor Ales - Artisan | 4.80 | Not Tried | |
| By The Horns - Diamond Geezer | 4.90 | Not Tried | |
| Brockley - Golden Ale | 3.80 | Not Tried |

Evening. Some CAMRA members fresh back from Dulwich Festival here and the Zerodegrees, Blackheath brewer here too.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Florence - Titfer (branded as A Head In A Hat Brewing) | 3.50 | | Best of the evening |
| Redemption - Trinity | 3.00 | | |
| Mad Squirrel (formerly Red Squirrel) - London Porter | 5.00 | | Flat as a pancake - no condition |
| Ha'Penny - Hewitt's 'arf WIT Wheat IPA | 4.60 | Not Tried | An Antic manager said he thought this was being brewed at Brentwood at the moment but as no provenance is shown on pump clip can not be sure. I shall try Hewitt's once provenance is overtly stated at point of sale. |

Evening. A super live duo playing guitar and harmonica with some electronic backing accompaniment.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |

After midnight morning.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Altarnum (formerly Penpont) - Beast of Bodmin (It's out there) | 5.00 | | Dark beer - not really to my taste |
| Atlantic - Southerly Elderflower Blonde | 5.50 | | |
| Hand Drawn Monkey - M∆LP∆ "mow-pa" | 3.90 | | With Polish hops. Initial interesting taste in the head and early pint died |

After midnight morning visit.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Truefitt - Zoffany India Pale Ale | 5.00 | | Top notch - clear as a bell, cool with rounded bitterness |
| Shamblemoose - #4 American Brown Ale | 5.30 | | Malty and perhaps first one out for a while - a bit wet dog |
| RedWillow - Ageless | 7.20 | Not Tried | |
| Florence - Topper (branded as A Head In A Hat Brewing) | 4.80 | Not Tried |

Evening.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Late Knights - Worm Catcher IPA | 5.00 | | |
| Truefitt - Zoffany India Pale Ale | 5.00 |  | After the previous visit's euphoria with this beer this time it was hazy and nearing the end I guess so just tolerable. Is this not one of the great things about real ale in a way!? |
| Purple Moose - Dark Side of the Moose | 4.60 | Not Tried | |
| Shamblemoose - #4 American Brown Ale | 5.30 | Not Tried |

Evening. Not sure why a local challenged me to which Led Zep album "Ramble On" came from. I, Gollum, naturally won.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| RedWillow - Ageless | 7.20 | | Nourishing in a religious sort of way |
| Brockley - Pale Ale | 4.10 | | Cloudy as hell and last knockin's pint but still apricoty |
| Summer Wine (SWB) - Teleporter | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Hop Studio - Blonde | 3.50 | Not Tried |

No sign of the Brockley Brewery beers I was hoping to find here, but a pleasant pub in which to linger.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quantum - American Light | 3.60 | | Pale gold and sharply hoppy. |
| Clarence & Fredericks - IPA | 5.20 | | Golden in colour. Citrusy, spicy and bitter IPA. |
| Adnams - Lighthouse | 3.40 | Not Tried | |
| Tiny Rebel - Cwtch | 4.60 | Not Tried | |
| Late Knights - Hop o' the Morning | 4.20 | Not Tried |

The pub is found in Lewisham, Greater London, SE13 6NR.
Formerly The Coach & Horses and recently re-opened as part of the "Antic Collective". A large pub in Lewisham High Street, just south of the Ladywell baths complex and H.E. Olby's Plumbing Centre. One very large bar area with lots of floor space. One feature of the newly re-opened house is an array of 5 handpumps and the introduction of a gamut of guest beers from London and more widespread and the sale of a hand pumped cider. A welcome addition to the Lewisham real ale scene. Has a bar billiards table in use and a table football table. Regular live bands play and a small dancing area is provided. Antic closed the pub on 30th October 2016 in "preparation" for its opening of a currently closed pub in the Lewisham market area.
We have visited this pub 183 times, seen 307 different beers and tried 184 of them.
