Evening visit and quiet perhaps because it is Monday. JDW pricing used to be simple (pretty much flat rate for guest real ales) but here it is complicated as detailed below. Mr Martin please consider re-simplification.

Orkney (Sinclair) - Raven Ale | 3.80 | | Hazy and tasted metallic. Priced as a premium guest! |
Adnams - Broadside | 4.70 | Not Tried | |
Oakham - JHB | 3.80 | Not Tried | Priced as a special guest |
Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Pride | 4.10 | Not Tried | Priced as usual at special price |

2050 hours visit. Misleadingly large premises from the look of the exterior brick and stone building. Very well frequented tonight in bar and seated dining areas.
Mad Squirrel (formerly Red Squirrel) - Conservation Bitter | 4.10 | | Too fruity for me or perhaps on the turn. I could not be sure |

Busy early on a Thursday evening and locals are served before non-locals so expect long waits if you are not from the area. More festival beers coming soon than on sale.
Banks's - Jamaica Stout | 5.00 | | Good roasty and quite bitter stout with a good smooth mouthfeel. My score 16/20. |
