| Now 18 handpumps for beer and a couple for cider, plus several lagers/continental beers from barrels and literally hundreds of bottles. There are even plans to start brewing on the premises (the plant is already installed!) This is the pub that all others have to look to. It would undoubtedly be in BITE's top 10 were it not for the popular bias towards the London area and against the provinces. arihall - 23 Feb 2010 18:10 |
| Great pub with a wide range of beers. Snack options are excellent too. There was a great atmosphere when we visited, despite the over-loud and over-confident lass propping up the bar. A new entry in my personal top ten pubs. soupcon - 3 Feb 2010 22:35 |
| Excellent selection of real ales on offer. Like a mini beer festival every day. As previously mentioned ciders, perry, draught continental beers and unusual snacks also available. Check out their website for up to date info on what's on each handpump! LittleFamilyFish - 5 Jan 2010 09:07 |
| Huge range of real ales in this freehouse but I was less than impressed by the pub itself. This fits into CAMRA theme pub territory for me. It does indeed have more handpumps than you could sample from in 1 day, but I found this pub was lacking in atmosphere and generally a bit rough around the edges, but not in a good way. Having huge lists of foreign beers doesn't impress me much either - anybody can do that - its more difficult to create an environment that is enjoyable for drinkers, which I didn't think was present here. A little disappointing. Don't get me wrong, I will probably go back here again and its better than the vast majority of pubs, but it didn't live up to the hype for me, and I would rather go to the Kings Head or the Rat and Ratchet. Over-sized pint glasses a plus. Sharp - 12 Nov 2009 23:31 |
