Popped in here for a swift couple before 2130hrs last orders at the chip shop. Far busier than I was expecting with two private functions in full swing.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Banks's - Amber (was Amber Bitter)3.80ExcellentCrisp, malty and wheaty. Despite the crowds the barman offered me the option of waiting for the beer to settle so it could be topped up which I obviously accepted.

Popped in here early eve as Chris E was in the area and it would've been rude to turn down his kind offer to buy me a birthday pint. Busy as usual for the time of day.

My inbox contained a voucher for a free pint here and in another email a BOGOF offer on Marston's Help for Heroes so it seemed a good idea to come here and meet up with a friend who lives nearby. Very busy in here tonight but staffing levels were about right so there was no queuing at the bar.
