Pig & Porter - Caravan3.60GoodExcellent condition. Had the initial smell and flavour of Gadd's No. 7 but with a much sweeter malt body. Very drinkable.

Friendly welcome and just a few folk in the front bar so we took over the empty back room and endured the unnecessary and loud music for our stay.
