5pm and busy but thankfully a lot of people were outside and there was plenty of room to sit down and admire the building. I used both bars and got immediate service every time.

Rush hour busy, but service speedy. The first few Wetherspoon Beer Festival beers have appeared.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Banks's - Grapes & Gratification Old World New England IPA | 5.00 | | A very nice, pale, hoppy beer that lacks any hint of Banks’s house taste. |
| Tring - American Brown | 4.50 | | A bitter and dry Brown Ale. |

The renovations here seem to have become a permanent feature, the left side of the main room still shrouded.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Portobello - Central Line Red | 4.40 | | Good preparation before facing ordeal by Central Line, but actually, it’s a pretty middle-of-the-road sort of beer. |
| Adnams - Broadside | 4.70 | Not Tried | |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | Not Tried | |

I just popped in really to see which festival beers were on, but a friend was at the bar and I stayed for a couple of halves. Pub pleasingly quiet at around 9pm on a Monday. I did not note all the beers.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Orkney (Sinclair) - Nimbus Blonde (Atlas range) | 5.00 | | Pale gold and rather floral. |
| JW Lees (see also Lees) - Weaver's Shuttle | 4.10 | | Golden/amber. Not quite the standard Bitter I was expecting. Crisp. |
| Theakston - Pink Grapefuit Ale | 3.90 | Not Tried | |
| Marston's - Early Doors | 6.00 | Not Tried |

Passing through again on my way home and still maintaining an interest in the Wetherspoon festival list.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Adnams - Young Henrys Newtowner | 4.80 | | Golden. A balanced and unspectacular (but pretty decent none-the-less) pint. |
| Greene King - Morland Old Nutty Hen | 4.50 | | Brown. It is indeed nutty – very sweet too. |
| Exmoor - Gold | 4.50 | Not Tried | |
| Hook Norton - Haymaker | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Nethergate (was Nethergate Growler for a while then name reverted) - Old Growler | 5.00 | Not Tried | |

Busy in the early evening rush hour peak. I popped in to have a look at the Wetherspoon Festival list. The pub is still in the midst of the renovation that I noted here in March.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vale - Steampunk | 5.10 | | Amber-coloured and strong-tasting. English-style IPA with spicy hop flavours. |
| Rooster's - Pistol River | 4.00 | | An amber-coloured mixed grain beer with a rye bite. |
| Caledonian - Cervecería Fort Barcelona Oatmeal Porter | 5.50 | | A good black Porter. Sweetish and smooth, with some hop character. |
| Greene King - IPA (was 3.6%) | 3.40 | Not Tried | |
| Greene King - Abbot | 5.00 | Not Tried | |
| Sharp's - Doom Bar | 4.00 | Not Tried | |
