06 Nov 2018 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit until midnight close.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Siren Craft - Suspended in Mosaic | 4.00 | | Murky as the name suggests, with a sharp hop taste |
| Almasty - Breakfast IPA | 6.00 | | No idea what to make of this, the murkiest muddiest beer I think I have ever had. Balanced in taste but a real disappointment as an alleged IPA |

| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Siren Craft - Broken Dream Breakfast Stout | 6.50 | | Have had better |
| Bad Seed - Chain Rule | 4.60 | | An American Pale, a style being stretched in its meaning! Certainly so in this case |

Evening visit until midnight close.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Blackjack - Royal Flush | 5.00 | | Enjoyed this more than yesterday. I think the overriding nose and taste are of caramel from the malt. Maybe my palate was cleaner today as an intense bitterness came over, that did not yesterday!! |

The pub is found in New Cross, Greater London, SE14 6TJ.
Located in New Cross Road it could be in Deptford or New Cross. Almost universally described as the “best pub in the area” the Royal Albert has massively improved since its 2007 reversion to its proper name, after a time as the Paradise Bar, and reversion to proper pub values. Has a pubby space at the front and more of a dining room feel towards the rear, where there is an open view kitchen. Very handy for Deptford Bridge DLR or New Cross stations. Sports 8 handpumps, one of which regularly carries a cider.
We have visited this pub 160 times, seen 411 different beers and tried 204 of them.
