Early evening.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Buxton - Axe Edge Double IPA | 6.80 | | The alternative offered after the Mallinson rejection. This was a superb 4½* beer |
| Mallinsons - Spruce Goose | 6.30 | | Sour, flat and so unappetising and the barman could see I was struggling with it. He had been using a sparkler but A.N. Other had removed it. He offered me an alternative which I avidly accepted. He fitted the sparkler back on the tap but will take more than that to bring this beer to life |

| Tapped Brew Co - Rodeo APA | 4.00 | Not Tried |

Not as busy as I'd expected, helps when weather is dry and people can drink outside. The keg range was more inspiring, Buxton's Red Raspberry Rye was stunning.

I’m off to Birmingham for the evening (Villa Park calling) but arrive at Euston in good time for a couple of pints in here. Nice to be in this pub at a quiet time.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clouded Minds - Black Pike IPA | 6.10 | | Luscious, strong Black IPA. |
| Camden Town - Camden versus Mohawk Black IPL | 5.80 | | On keg dispense, a collaboration brew with Mohawk Brewery of Sweden. A black lager with a huge hop load. |

There are so many different London Beer City events on tonight that it is hard to pick one out. I decide to go here for the first night of a week promoting Czech micro-brewery beers. In the event only three are on, but that’s enough for me. I list all the cask beers available, plus the three keg beers I drank.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Clouded Minds - Clout Stout | 5.60 | | A thick, black, liquoricey, full-flavoured Stout. |
| Strahov - IPA | 6.30 | | On keg dispense. Amber-coloured. A heavily-hopped, US-style IPA. |
| Matuška - California | 5.20 | | On keg dispense. Chilled and carbonated. An APA with lots of scrummy US hops. |
| Matuška - Uluwatu | 4.20 | | On keg dispense, chilled and carbonated. A hazy yellow-gold colour. Sweetish. A rather ordinary lager-type I thought. |
| Redemption - Fellowship Porter | 5.10 | Not Tried | |

Sunday evening and a nice crowd in tonight.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Magic Rock - Ringmaster | 3.90 | | |
| Coach House - Farrier's Best Bitter | 3.90 | Not Tried | This beer was just advertised as Farriers Best Bitter at 3.9% so I assume that it may have been the Coach House brew, the beer ran out before I could try one. |

The pub is found in Euston, Central London, NW1 2EF.
Sited in the neo classical lodges at the front of Euston mainline railway station and operated by Bloomsbury Leisure Group. The West Lodge opened initially then the East Lodge opened as a cider bar but was later converted to matching the West Lodge drinks offerings. In each lodge the bar is on the ground floor with more seating and the toilets upstairs via a narrow spiral staircase. In the West Lodge there are 8 cask beers on air pressure and 19 keg taps are fitted on the back wall plus there are fridges of bottled beers on either side of the bar. Owned by the same people as the Sheffield Tap on the station there. No food is prepared here but pizzas may be ordered at the bar and then they are shipped in by a supplier.
We have visited this pub 81 times, seen 305 different beers and tried 105 of them.
