I nearly skipped this one due to the massive crowds inside and the bouncers on the door but I relented at the last minute and slipped in for a half of Old Schnozzler before my train. Four of their own beers plus four guests including Titanic Plum Porter. A pleasant rustic open-plan interior and excellent service from the Antipodean barman, the beer tasted great too. But this was a bit rushed and late in the day to give a genuine assessment of the pub. I’m sure I will be back!

This brewhouse is housed in a former 18th Century malthouse, hence all the space. I noticed some brewing equipment on display in the main lounge and bar area. It seemed quite small for the amount of beer they are brewing at present. So they have expanded into the cellar and now have a 16 barrel set up, along with the 8 barrel brewhouse on the ground floor.
Luckily for us we managed to get a seat near the bar, which was good to peruse the beer boards. Five of their own beers plus three guest on our visit, plus another choice of eight keg, with a mix of lagers ciders included. The dearest pint of their own beer was £3.60 a pint, service at the bar was also fast and efficient. One not to be missed.

Just off the main road, this is a large modern brewhouse which nonetheless is done-out quite well with lots of wood, dry hops and exposed brick, almost bierkeller-esque. The brew kit visible through plate glass on the far right. Very popular, it was two deep at the bar. Six (maybe more?) cask with a good number of theirs on. When in Rome etc, the Bitter was in great shape (NBSS 4) and the Bees Knees was decent too (3.5). A bustling atmosphere on the right side of raucous. Many dogs. Worth getting off the train for specially, it’s very good and GBG'22 listed. 8.5
