Busy late Saturday afternoon coming back from our Old Dairy trip. Good buzz in the bar and very fast wifi
BeerABVScoreNotes
Banks's - Ringwood Fortyniner4.90AcceptableBit sweet I thought. But drinkable enough
Marston's - EPA3.60PoorFast cask beer and it tastes like it. None of the ingrdients really work together. No bad flavours or off or anything like that, but I didn't like it and couldn't finish much more than a half pint of it

A busy Friday afternoon. Plenty of people inside, and sitting outside the pub. We had time for a quick one in here before the Camra K&ESR Beer Festival opened at 18:00 hours.

Banks's - Hanson's Classic Mild3.30ExcellentWe ordered two pints, and after our beers were poured there was no more left, and the clip was turned around. A reddish brown delicious mild ale.
