We looked for a traditional pub showing the football. We found the micro pubs.
This had the benefit of hand pulled beer but I had not heard of the breweries. As I was experimenting, I went for one of the two ciders on handpull.
My first one since a teenager.
Might be a game-changer!

My fourth micropub of the day and the only disappointment. There are six hand pumps on the bar, with three beers from the local Goody brewery plus one from rather more distant Lincoln Green. The owners appear to be a couple, one of whom was doing something on a laptop out in the customer area, and had to get up and go behind the bar to serve me. I didn't detect any interest in her customers, and I had to ask about the three Goody beers, which were unfamiliar to me, getting only a perfunctory description. This place seems like a regular bar to me, with a large range of spirits, it just happens to be small. The beer I went for was in poor condition though not so bad that I was prepared to interrupt the laptop again to ask for a replacement.

Seems to have opened again under new owners. Apparently now does CAMRA discount and a selection of Belgian beers.
Review From May 2016
This is a smaller micropub with a single square room, a shelf with some stools to the right and a bench with a low table and chairs by the front window.
Only three beers were available Adnam's Broadside, Kent Session Pale and Long Man Sussex Pride. I went for the Sussex Pride (£3.40) which was in good nick.
Although I didn't think this was as good as the Bouncing Barrel it's still a good micropub and well worth a look.
