Visits Details
28 May 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Late evening visit until a bank holiday Sunday extended closing time. Soon, though, the only punter in. As a nightcap here tried a fizz The Kernel 6.5% Bitter Simonds 1880, an old recipe re-creation - held little head or lacing at all.
| Marble - Modus Mosaic | 3.40 |  | A thin brew probably been in pipes for a while |
25 May 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit. Only one handpump in use as the other has a broken cylinder.
| Squawk - Pavo - Pale Ale | 3.80 |  | Nicely balanced, none of the harsh citrus tones I had feared |
18 May 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit.
| Torrside - Candlewick | 4.00 |  | Would have muchly benefited from being served cooler, a regular problem with cask ale here |
| Elusive - Buckets Don't Rust in Space (collaboration with The Rusty Bucket Pub) | 4.50 | Not Tried | A Citra & Mosaic Pale Ale |
11 May 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit.
| Pomona Island - Tarquell | 3.80 |  | Full bodied for its ABV |
| Squawk - Crex | 4.50 | Not Tried | Clip said Unfined so automatic no go |
04 May 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit. Brewery people from Disruption IS Brewing on site tonight and gave good debate about cask v keg.
| Disruption IS Brewing (sub-brand of Ascot) - More Chaos | 5.00 |  | A milky murk with no harshness of hopping |
| Burning Sky - Plateau (was 3.5%) | 3.40 | Not Tried | |
30 Apr 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit using extended bank holiday Sunday hours.
| Torrside - Mister Pipes | 4.00 |  | Disappointing very malty brown ale, if there were hops they were hiding |
| Burning Sky - Plateau (was 3.5%) | 3.40 | Not Tried | |
20 Apr 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit, sparsely populated.
| Marble - Manchester Bitter | 4.20 |  | A very good example that would have been 4* if cooler, a problem here often |
| Track - Sonoma | 3.80 | Not Tried | |
13 Apr 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit specifically to try the other Common Rioters's collaboration brew.
| Elusive - Miles Per Day (collaboration with Common Rioters) | 4.70 |  | A chocolate orange stout with all the attributes |
| Elusive - Miles Per Hour (collaboration with Common Rioters) | 4.70 | Not Tried | |
12 Apr 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit just as a local CAMRA party was leaving.
| Elusive - Miles Per Hour (collaboration with Common Rioters) | 4.70 |  | Liked this for its orange flavouring, apparently from orange zest added to the brewer's boil |
09 Apr 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit.
| Vocation - Banana Cookie-Dough Cheesecake Stout (collaboration with Vault City) | 6.00 |  | All the flavours but been in pipes a while I guess, as needed to be cooler |
| Lost and Grounded - Spring Protagonist | 4.40 | Not Tried | |
