Late afternoon and fairly quiet which made social distancing a breeze today. Only one beer available in The Crafty Filly bar thankfully it just happened to be a sought after favourite of mine!

Well not really a pub - but a pleasant evening with a couple of bottles of Pride.

A large marquee has been erected beside the parade ring with 40 real ales available on gravity dispense at £4 a pint. I list just the four I tried plus the pleasing selection that was available from London brewers.
BeerABVScoreNotes
West Berkshire - Maharajah’s IPA4.50ExcellentA well hopped bitter, featuring the British Cascade hop.
Arbor Ales - Mandarin Dream4.50ExcellentLush, copper-coloured beer with an orangy taste from German Mandarina hops.
Arkell's - Black Cherry3.60AcceptableDoes not do what it says on the tin. A brown-coloured, fruity and tangy Crystal malt beer, lacking cherries.
Old Bog - Blonde & Bitter4.20PoorThis was a dud. Cloudy and with floaters. I would have returned it if I had noticed before I walked 400 yards to the rail.
