Mid evening - Saturday in August - heaving outside but not crowded inside - so why was the music deafening ?

Evening. At 2100 hrs tables were uncleared and the bar counter was strewn with empty glasses, meal dirty crockery and cutlery and had not been wiped down for sometime. Several pumpclips were rotated at 90° to one side, whatever that means. Quick half and hightailed. Ugh.

Pub two on my unexpected pub-crawl (pub three for my friends). Quite busy with lunchtime diners here, although we secured the last table.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Itchen Valley - Dark Solstice5.00GoodA dark, fruity Brown Ale/Porter, with a bit of roast character. Quickly fell flat in the glass.
