Literally last knockings (11.58pm) visit until close. Denuded real ale range.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 | | Honestly bordering on a 4 - perhaps only my prejudice of the brand's ubiquitousness holds me back from the higher mark. Perhaps 99p a pint makes it fast moving but was a great clean well condtioned bitter that was simply gluggable |

| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 | | Not wanting Doomeroomer or any Windsor or Eton just left with this. Turned out to be last out of cask too and as must be selling like hot cakes at 99p pp it was still very good indeed |

Last knockings visit until close. Serendipity as another Harp Charing Cross émigré who had been in The Capitol last night was here too. Who is stalking who?
