Fairly quiet and relaxing. The heavy external doors are kept closed during the winter months which can make the pub look closed.

| Old Dairy - Red Top | 3.80 |  | Served brain freezingly cold gave this an iced tea flavour not normally associated with this beer. |

Evening visit and busy. Very welcoming staff who gave me a sample of a canned Hop Stuff beer to try. I was informed that Black Iris Snake Eyes will come on once the Dark Star Partridge has gone.

I had almost given up on seeing cask in here again as it had not been available on a number of recent visits. A busy Friday evening and the cask was selling well.

| Dark Star - Partridge Best Bitter | 4.00 | | A little on the cold side. |
