Serving three, changing, real ales from independent breweries by hand pumps on the bar front. The pub has a wall of taps behind the bar, fourteen in number, most of which dispense a varied range of keg beers. It is not known at this stage whether any of the beers are from membrane keg. One of the taps is used for draught wine and two are used to dispense boxed cider, one of which was a real cider from Hogans, however the adjoining tap was for a keg cider from the same producer, so be careful. The other boxed cider on sale was a fruit cider from Lilleys, which CAMRA does not count as a real cider, due to the use of concentrated juices. The pub also sells a vast range of bottles and cans of continental beers and lagers, many from Belgium and Germany, plus bottled ciders, from its three fridges/shelves, for drinking on the premises or to takeaway. One real cider from Hogans is usually on sale, from bag in box, via a Flojet and free flow tap behind the bar. The adjoining taps may well be offering a keg cider from the same producer and/or a non real boxed cider, so please seek information from the bar staff.'
