A real buzz in here, probably the busiest pub of my 3 day stay up here. Good selection of 8 ales. Would have liked to stay longer here but was running out of time. One for a future revisit.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Empire - Privateer4.10AcceptableGood hop and malt character but let down by a very dry finish. My score 14/20.
