The pub seems to be thriving under new ownership.Probably food oriented, but there's a good local trade.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hydes - 1863 Classic Bitter | 3.50 | | Is it a light mild, is it a bitter?I dunno, but I enjoyed it, and could well have made it a session.An initial pronounced hop effect, which rapidly was replaced by a mellow fruitiness. Mid brown . Yes, I suppose I could place it alongside Courage's PBA, drunk in this very pub too many years ago. |
| Wadworth - Henry's Original IPA | 3.60 | Not Tried | |
| Adnams - Southwold Bitter (was 3.7%) | 3.40 | Not Tried |
