Great pub about 10 minutes south of the town centre. It had a beer festival on when we were there and the marquee out the back had an amazingly long bar lined with around 60 handpulls. Great place to come for a beer.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Craven Silk | 4.00 | | So much elderflower almost gingerish Gold, lasting beige head. Very, very elderflower on aroma. Good in mouth, good fullish pale malt, then lots of peppery elderflower on finish. Good beer. |
| Yorkshire Dales - 100 Not Out | 5.80 | | Dark brown lasting deep beige head. Cream and smoky dark beer not a lot of dark malts, but good smoke character. Ok. |
| Pictish - Pictish | 4.60 | | Pale gold, lasting cream head. Good hoppy beer, bit of yeast, faint diacetyl. But you know what it’s pretty decent, decent hop, good bitterness. Bit of butter. Decent |
| Mallinsons - Catalyst | 3.80 | | Orange gold colour, Mount Hood hops dry hopped. Only slightly hazy. Really good hops and finish. Great hops, lovely and resiny. Yep pretty good |
| Epicurus Craft Beer (formerly Hornbeam) - High Summer Pale Ale | 4.50 | | Gold, thin lasting off white head. Bit woody on aroma, bit of butter in mouth, not too hoppy on finish, more woody than anything. |
| Otley - Columb-O | 4.00 | | Pale gold, lasting off white head. Yeasty pineapple on aroma. It’s a good hoppy beer with aggressive yeast character. Decent. If characterful which isn’t to everyone’s taste |
