Not busy but with Mario behind the bar and 2 Oakham beers on I was very happy and Schlenkerla Lagerbier. Lovely.

Met some great people here. Sim popped in from Ratebeer and met the brewer from Brewsters who was on his way back to Grantham. Good visit

| Oakham - Tranquility | 6.50 | | Not my favourite Oakham beer. Yes the intense tangerine is good but I find it sticky and a bit syrupy |
| Anglo-Dutch - Old Staff | 4.20 | | Good flavours just not in best of condition. Good character though |
| Anglo-Dutch - Kletswater | 4.00 | Not Tried |

|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Akenhatan | 4.90 | | Very pale and very hoppy, full of fruity citrus hop flavours. Good malt character keeps the bitterness at bay to give a very pleasant beer. My score 17/20. |

Very busy with market visitors on a Saturday afternoon.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oakham - Citra | 4.20 | | Superb very pale ale bursting with pungent hop aromas. The taste is full of fruity citrus hoppiness with good malt balance. The best example of this hop in a single hop beer that I have sampled. My score 17/20. |

| Hardknott - Dark Energy | 4.90 | | Dark brown porter style beer with a fair bit of bitterness but a full bodied malty taste as well. My score 15/20. |
05 Jun 2010 (Martin the Mildman)
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Burton Bridge - Walker's Way | 4.50 | | Usual flavours from a Burton Bridge seasonal, peppery hop and dry malt to give a bitter beer without much depth of flavour. My score 14/20. |

The pub is found in Southwark, Central London, SE1 9AG.
Small pub on the north side of Borough Market run by the same people who own the Utobeer bottled beer stall in the market itself. The bar has 3 hand pulls serving UK cask beers and 6 taps supplying continental and world beers. An extensive bottle beer selection is also available from the fridges behind the bar. The bar has stripped wood floors, pale beige walls and a historic Pilkington glass ceiling. A decked patio provides extra space and seating. Definitely an excellent addition to the Southwark beer scene.
We have visited this pub 151 times, seen 348 different beers and tried 249 of them.
