A very unusual red IPA with a great kick. Needed 2 ice to get it to an acceptable temperature though.

Went for breakfast at spoons on a hot morning for Lynnes birthday. However the beers were totally uninspiring. So to the Artillery for a much better selection.

Lovely stout, a tad too warm but this was solved by one ice cube.
Rooster's - Undiscovered Land

Sooo different. Medicinal, floral, unusual beer. Bit warm.
A small corner pub on a hill, West Cliff Road, not far from the town centre. It has a rather rambling interior with the main seating area raised above the bar floor and a basement seating area too. Glorious stained glass street windows. 6 handpumps on the bar counter enhanced to make 9 in 2022.
We have visited this pub 497 times, seen 405 different beers and tried 314 of them.
