Not too busy, just enough to give a pleasant hum of conversation to enhance the great atmosphere of this historic pub.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thwaites - Nutty Black | 3.30 | | Sweet and malty with hints of toffee and chocolate and low hop rate. My score 16/20 despite being served too cold and therefore awarded a "B" for quality. |

Lively as offices close for the night. Great beer selection here but food + service very average.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Downton - Dark Delight | 5.50 | | Near black bitter. Malty and deep with a spicy roasted malt nose. A bit astringent after a while + a pint was enough. |
| Tetley - Bitter | 3.70 | Not Tried | |
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Jaipur | 5.90 | Not Tried | |
| York (now brewed by and at Black Sheep) - Centurion's Ghost Ale | 5.40 | Not Tried | |

Quiet enough on a lunchtime, The Vic serves food and has no sports. Excellent range of Beer available, all in excellent condition. The drining and seating area is a pleasure to drink in. Pleasant Staff.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Morrissey Fox - Proud of Pubs Best | 4.20 | | Surprisingly excellent offering. Ruby in colour, with a thick, creamy head, this bitter starts out malty but has a lovely sweetness to the finish. Nice mouthfeel, and not much hops. One for Dark Mild or Mild lovers to seek out. |
| Sharp's - Atlantic IPA (now replaced by 4.2% Atlantic) | 4.80 | | Not really hoppy enough for a true IPA in my opinion, this is nontheless a pleasant, copper-hued beer with a light, tasty body tha would make a great session beer. |
| Cairngorm - Nessie's Monster Mash (superseded by 4.1% version) | 4.40 | | Mahogany coloured, smoky bitter with a full body. |
