Not surprisingly a bit short of ale following the winter beet festival. Outrageous - an employee of Molson Coors was (a customer) but saying how wonderful the Carling was!! Really!!

Marston's - Bass4.40AcceptableActually not bad, just a hint of the caramelness and smoothness that a good pint of Bass used to have. Decently colour and poured well.
Marston's - Pedigree4.50Not Tried

Quite busy, not too many takers for the beer festival given the pretty foul weather and mid week date, hopefully better for the weekend
BeerABVScoreNotes
Spire - Whiter Shade of Pale4.00GoodVery nice light, golden ale, very hoppy and citrussy. Nothing unusual but inoffensive and quoffable
Barlow - Black5.00GoodReally dark, tasty, mildesque beer, very roast malt flavour with lingering toffee overtones. Nothing unusual but very nice
Dancing Duck - Ey Up3.90AcceptableNice golden beer, quite hoppy, nothing exceptional, a bit cold but given outside in 3 degrees that's fair enough
