New Inn, Warwick

The New Inn is the only pub in the village of Norton Lindsey and is the current local CAMRA branch (Heart of Warwickshire) pub of the year. It's a community-run pub with an adjacent village shop. Inside, there is an L-shaped room with a screen listing the available beers. Unfortunately, the ale I chose ran out before a half could be poured. This left the remaining selection as Greene King IPA, Hook Norton Hooky, Blue Monkey BG Sips & Monty's Best Bitter. The IPA is their regular beer. My replacement was the Monty's, which was in good condition. Quite a number of locals were congregated around the bar, making service difficult, whilst 3 lone casks were sat on a table in the middle of the room. All were milds (Hook Norton Hooky Mild, Holden's Black Country Mild & Church End Gravedigger's Mild), suggesting they'd had some kind of mini beer festival of milds and that these were the 3 remaining beers. This village pub is certainly a credit to the community, is well worth a visit and was one of the highlights of our trip to Warwickshire.
