Stopped for a quick pint before dinner and ended up staying for a second. Good number of punters occupying most of the tables. We sat in tall-backed wooden chairs in a corner underneath one of the chandeliers (yes, chandeliers!) Friendly, chatty barman ensured we felt welcomed despite being unfamiliar to him. The owners have done a really good job here.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Timothy Taylor - Landlord | 4.30 | | I overlook this beer far too often. Glowing gold, big and hoppy with counteracting creamy sweet malts. A cracking ale which didn't suffer so much from the cool dispense. |
| Theakston - Old Peculier | 5.60 | | First cask OP of the season. Wintry winner, dark, moody malts. Is this the ideal cold January evening ale? Cellar must have been chilly as this was served a little on the cool side, though conditioning was excellent once it had warmed through. |
