Nano is actually the size of the brewery, the bar is called Öl.

8 craft pumps on the back wall, all of them chicken soup and very, very expensive.

I don't mind cloudy beers, but my stomach objects, sometimes violently.

Only 2 of us in on Paddy's Day. It's just an uncomfortable box.

Re-visited a few weeks ago on a Saturday night. Not much has changed since my previous visit and review, however I think there are now more venues within Hatch and a communal outdoor seating area, which for some reason most of the customers seemed to be using instead of sitting inside - but that at least meant we were able to get a decent table in the warm! It's still all keg and there was enough to choose from. Be aware that their own beers are often not available but there are plenty of guests to choose from, which I would describe as being at the premium end of the craft market. The door behaved itself on this visit, so presumably that has been fixed.

A small-ish bar built into a portacabin type thing at Hatch.

Öl do their own beers but it is all keg, payment is by card only, and it is on the expensive side really. A pint of Blue Meanines (a blueberry IPA) would set you back £8 for example (6.2%). From memory there were eight craft keg options with a mix of their own beers and those from other breweries.

Nice to have tried, and I may go back one day, but I'm not in any rush to do so. The kind of place you may stay in for one or two then you'd probably want to move on. Not much in the way of atmosphere and there was a problem with the door which meant it didn't shut properly so then kept opening in the wind and banging on the glass panel next to it. That got rather irritating rather quickly.

The beer I had was OK, but was hard to justify the price of it.
