Fairly quiet on a Wednesday afternoon, such that the landlord offered to bring a beer from the cellar for me to try.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tryst - Dark Toffee Porter | 4.40 | | One of those beers that absolutely lives up to its name. Dark brown with a slight burnt toffee flavour and some sweetness. A little hoppiness in the dryish finish. My score 16/20. |
| Big Lamp - Winter Pale | 4.50 | | Pale golden with a good citrus hop bitterness balanced by some malt. Fairly dry, citrus finish. My score 15/20. |
| Gundog (re-named now see Acton Ales entry) - Golden Cocker | 4.10 | | Golden bitter with a very strong hop bitterness. A little maltiness and a dry, bitter finish. My score 14/20. |
