Listed in CAMRA's Good Beer Guide 2001 as stocking "a variety of foreign bottled beer" which included Erdinger Weissbier, Erdinger Weissbier Dunkel and Erdinger Alkoholfrei, plus the Belgians Chimay Rouge, Duvel, Westmalle Dubbel, Leffe Blonde and Hoegaarden. There is a good range of well kept cask ales and a beer garden at the rear. Accessibility: the pub is mostly level, including the toilets, though these aren't wheelchair accessible.

If you know of anywhere that I've missed (and there must be many), please email me.
It's worth checking out the mainstream off licences and major supermarkets, and if you still can't find what you're looking for locally, try our Mail Order listings.
