Bar area crowded out with groups of suited professional drinkers. Quieter in the seated areas to the side and rear.

Late Friday afternoon. Lots of suits, but still got a seat.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Fuller's (part of Asahi Europe) - London Porter5.40GoodI would never get bored drinking this. Not as good as when I had it at the Head of Steam. Dark malts, some fruit, but lacks depth and intensity of previous pint. Love the aroma though and the choc/damson flavours.
