Timothy Taylor Landlord Bitter 
Landlords comments: We always have one Cask Ale on occasionally two, and we don't have fixed Ale. Instead we cycle through, a selection we get from our Brewery which include Tim Taylor, Hobgoblin, Speckled Hen, London Pride, Rev James, Bombardier, to name a few. These are then interspersed with Hanby's and Woods Brewery. Of the two the Woods sells far better - Apr 2007
