I do love this pub. Sat under the Fremlins window or course and listened to an eclectic range of music - mainly the kind of stuff I imagine Brian likes (skar, punk, indie) and a bit of Fleetwood Mac too.

Heaving. We squeezed in at the back and tried not to intrude to much into the conversation of a group of ladies out for the night.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Old Dairy (being contract brewed after it closed) - Red Top | 3.80 |  | The first pint was vinegar so they changed it with no fuss. The first one of the new barrel was fine. |
