The Black Swan, Warrington

Hand pulls now reduced to four, at the time of my visit offering Lymm Brewing Bridgewater Blonde and something by Seven Bro7hers, possibly Session. Both of these doubled up so just the two to choose from. Pleasant views across the extensive beer garden as ever, but was looking a bit scruffy in parts with litter on the ground.

Now five hand pulls at the bar, offering Doom Bar, TT Landlord, Dunham Big Tree and Lymm Bridgewater Blonde. One was off due to conditioning but the label suggested this would also be TT Landlord. All back to normal now - head to the bar, order, pay, clear off with your drink. The large beer garden and green area is a massive bonus for the Black Swan and is very pleasant when the sun is out.
