A scattering of punters dining. Recently reopened after an electrical fire. Could still smell it too.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Eagle (formerly Wells & Young's, formerly Charles Wells, formerly Wells) - Courage Directors (use Banks's entry now please)4.80ExcellentA widely overlooked ale which was in cracking condition here. Maybe slightly thick but nice sweet malts with bursts of tangy fruits in the mouth. Lasting full head. Decent.
Caledonian - Flying Scotsman (superseded by 3.5% version)4.00ExcellentRich malty full bodied brown beer. Slight sour biscuity malt with thick covering creamy head. Pleasant and very drinkable. Pumpclip definitely said 4% though.
Marston's - Pedigree4.50Not Tried
