11 Dec 2016 (Stephen Harris)
Very busy at Sunday lunchtime, although QPR Steve and I manage to squeeze into a little corner. So busy in fact that beer range is depleted to just the one, but good to see one brewed by Oz11 of this parish.
| Rockin Robin - Robin Redbest | 4.00 | | A dark Bitter that is a bit too much at the malt end of the spectrum for my tastes, but popular with those around me. |
01 Dec 2016 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening until 9pm close. A lively bunch sitting near the bar counter.
| Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Snow Top | 6.00 | | Very last almost a pint out of the cask and as good as might have been the first. A snip at £3 pp to clear |
| Empire - Golden Warrior | 3.80 | | |
| Bluestone (Pembrokeshire) - Bedrock Blonde | 4.00 | Not Tried | |

| Grey Trees - Digger's Gold | 4.00 | | Not a style I would want a second of |
| Fyne - Jarl | 3.80 | | Preview pint, not for all until tomorrow |
02 Nov 2016 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening until 9pm close. Good conflicting debate about what non-cask ale products a Micropub should sell.
| Kent - Green Giant | 6.00 | | Nearing end of cask, not quite as good as the perfect nectar at the end of last week |

28 Oct 2016 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening until 10pm close. Good mix of customers in.

| Mallinsons - Chinook | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Longdog - Golden Poacher | 3.90 | Not Tried | |
