My first pub visit in Lyme this holiday. Fairly empty really. I watched the staff coming and going whilst trying to ignore the nettly hops on my pint.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lyme Regis - Cobb | 3.90 | | Soft mouth feel. Cox apple flavour. Smoky sandalwood flavours. Very nettley hop finish. |
| Butcombe - Brunel Atlantic IPA | 5.00 | Not Tried |

The second port of call for Jane, Alison and myself. It was more or less empty. We got our pints and sat at one of the large round tables under the window. I even bought chilli peanuts to eat on the way home.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Butcombe - Blonde | 5.00 | | Not as good as earlier in the week as it was a bit less lively and fresh but nothing wrong with it and quite drinkable. |
| Otter - Bitter | 3.60 | Not Tried |

Here for old times sake really. There was an ever passing crowd or people drifting though. The 60's music on the stereo was quite good and I sat and wrote postcards on my own whilst knocking back a couple of pints of Blond.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Butcombe - Blonde | 5.00 | | This was very drinkable. Light and frothy with hints of grapefruit and orange. |
| Otter - Bitter | 3.60 | Not Tried |

Late afternoon and it was fairly quite. There are two main drinking areas which were nicely laid out.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Marston's - Bass | 4.40 | | Slightly sulphorous nose followed by a sweet malty low bitterness finish |
| Wadworth - 6X | 4.10 | Not Tried |
