Will Larter left this review about The Red Bear

A Craft Union pub with a couple of hand pumps, with Wainwright Amber and Hobgoblin Gold, the latter being very cheap at £2.30 /pint, but there was something about it that didn't feel quite right. I wondered if this could be one of the Carlsberg fake cask beers, but I had not observed it being pulled as I was searching in my shoulder bag for my wallet. So I asked the friendly licensee and she confirmed that both beers are keg versions served through hand pumps. They are selling well, she told me.

Nice little pub. A few locals in during my early lunchtime visit. 2 beers on. I went for Bradfield Farmers Blonde which was fine.

Narrow long pub with the bar to the left and a front and rear room. Everybody but me was in the front room. Toilets right at the back. Two TVs in the rear room. Two weak real ales on sale.
