| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Archers - Banged Up | 4.30 | | Dark orange beer with lasting beige head. Some hop, some OK malt. Hops are quite green with a very nice hop finish |
| Cotswold Spring - Codrington Royal | 4.30 | | Dark chestnut beer, thin beige head. Some darkish malts, some nice dark fruit. Fine, but not too hot. Some spicey hop finish |
| Archers - Lost the Plot | 4.00 | | Orange beer with off white head. Pleasant citrus fruit nose, some apple, some acids. Fairly typical of Archers beers I have had in the past. Some hops on aroma and finish |
| Tower - Autumn Equinox | 4.60 | | Pale chestnut beer with thin white head. Yes, quite nice malt some decent hop. Something a bit earthy too. Fine, but nothing amazing |
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Phoenix - West Coast I.P.A. | 4.60 | | Dark copper colour with thin beige head. Cookie dough and hoppy aroma. Caramel and op in mouth. More hop on end but disappinting and a bit of muddle of flavours. Like so many beers at this pub, never sure that this is exactly how it should taste. |
| Blackawton - Original Bitter | 3.80 | | Ruby brown colour, no head. Eggy yeast aromas, some apple and brown sugar. Disappointing beer |

The pub is found in Southwark, Central London, SE1 9AA.
Famous pub opposite Borough Market in Stoney Street. Central bar has many beers which change on a regular basis and are mostly from UK micros. Can be extremely busy. Refurbishment some time ago and now there is one main room with a side area with seating as well. Many customers use the pavement outside to stand and enjoy their drinks. Really a must for anyone taking in London pubs. Sports 12 handpumps with 6 in each of the 2 distinct bar serving areas plus a further 4 for cider dispense at the far rear. Upstairs restaurant bar area too, mainly for lunchtime use. In 2019 the real ale choice was drastically reduced to 4 and the cider was withdrawn. Downstairs toilets. Card payment only, cash not accepted here.
We have visited this pub 282 times, seen 813 different beers and tried 647 of them.
