Wadworth - Feral The Runt4.70GoodAn early appearance of a JDW festival beer, this was brewed by an Australian brewer at Wadworth. A sweetish malty beer with little hoppiness and a fruity finish. Supposedly brewed with Citra hops, but little evidence of these distinctive hops in this sample. My score 15/20.

Website.

The pub is found in City, Central London, EC2R 8EJ.

Was a cavernous Wetherspoon in modern office building at No.1 Poultry, a small ground floor level bar and a much bigger lower level. Closed in May 2017 for complete redevelopment of the building. Re-opened late 2019 with new name and as a crazy golf concept.

We have visited this pub 69 times, seen 109 different beers and tried 86 of them.
