Early evening visit:the pub quickly filled up with drinkers and diners.Good quality food.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nethergate (was Nethergate Growler for a while then name reverted) - IPA | 3.60 | | Beer of the day for me, a pale hoppy bitter with a crispness backed up by an east anglian malt. |
| Nethergate (was Nethergate Growler for a while then name reverted) - Suffolk County Best Bitter | 4.00 | | A dark, almost ruby best bitter. perhaps a little sweet and cloying for me.Too well balanced? |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
| Oulton Ales - Orange Wheat Beer | 4.20 | Not Tried | This was on stillage behind the bar.As a wheat grower I was tempted, but resisted.The pub also stocked various ciders and perries. |
