CAMRA's formal press release today makes The Door Hinge the Greater London Regional Pub of the Year 2014. Now into the last 16 UK (and Jersey)-wide. Could it take this year's crown?

Evening until close.
| Dark Star - Hophead was 3.8% (some has also been brewed by Fuller's) | 3.40 | | Disillusioned with Hophead these days but this was cracking. Probably only The Harp at Charing Cross would match the head on this pint. 4½* marking |

| Great Heck - Powermouse | 3.60 | Not Tried | |
