Time for a pint before we departed for the nearby Hbf, not as busy as expected thus able to pick and choose where we sat. No obvious changes since the photos were taken.

12:00 Planned to get some lunch, but only available Mondays according to the bar-maid. I was the only customer. The Mickles casks over the bar are noteworthy.

The exterior was covered in scaffolding and the pub appeared to be closed, but a notice on the door said "Business as Usual" so I entered. The pub was packed with people watching football on the pub's television, but I managed to find some space in the room at the back. It was not possible to see all the cask beers on offer because of cider drinkers standing in front of the pump clips.

30 Sep 2010 (Martin the Mildman)
Busy with a visit from the Thursday evening mild drinkers, but otherwise would have been fairly quiet.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mighty Oak - Oscar Wilde Mild | 3.70 | | Sweetish, low hopped and malty as a mild should be. My score 16/20. |
| Titanic - Green Hop | 4.50 | | Quite bitter and hoppy golden ale with a fresh, dry hop taste and finish. My score 14/20. |
| Tring - Mansion Dark | 3.70 | Not Tried |
