Local trade. Mostly dog owners.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Belhaven - 80/- or 80 Shilling | 4.20 | | Many a year since I've enjoyed this. Good to see it again. Still full of flavour. |
| Fyne - Jarl | 3.80 | | First froma freash cask. Bit thin - suspect it could have been pulled through more. |

Quiet. Price hike to £3.90 for cask.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Moor - Illumination | 4.30 | | Strange. A bitter with more than a hint of saison. |
| Moor - Stout | 5.00 | | Unusual. A stout with a burnt, slightly acetic tone. Is this what the brewer intended. |
| Orkney (Sinclair) - Corncrake Ale | 4.10 | Not Tried |
