Crab and Lobster Inn, Bembridge, Isle of Wight
Fri, 08/08/2008 - 16:41 — DMA nice enough pub with 3 real ales on, 2 from the local Goddard's Brewery. I had a Fuggle-Dee-Dum from Goddards and it was lovely. A scorcher of a day and walking around the

Although the name and label of the beer sets high standards - "High & Mighty Beer of the Gods" - it lives up to them. Very much like a delicate pilsner but brewed in an al

If I'd bought this at a beer festival, it would have reinforced all those prejudices that people have about us and the beer we drink. Tastes like mushy peas. And not in a good way.

The Fat Cat Bar, Freshwater, Isle of Wight
Tue, 05/08/2008 - 14:23 — DMA lovely pub for summer drinking. Two real ales on tap & both ones I hadn't tried before; Everards Hazy Daze was lovely - very much like a German weissebeer - hazy, with a ta

This beer has the American Cascade hop taste that I really love in spades. Very much like an American pale ale (Sierra Nevada Pale Alei, Brooklyn Pale Ale etc.) in that it has loads of h

Very pale and hoppy without being too bitter. Hops coming in strong at the end. Only problem I could find with this overall fantastic beer is that it's a touch too sweet perhaps.

The Vine Inn, St Helens, Isle of Wight
Fri, 08/08/2008 - 16:51 — DMAn unpretentious pub just across from the village green making it a nice place to sup a pint on a hot day. Limited drinking space outside. Clearly a local pub with bands on

Easy drinking with a good balance of hop over a pale, but not too light, finish.
The Seven Stars, Aberedw
Fri, 13/06/2008 - 22:20 — DMFound after a 6 mile walk across hills to Aberedw from Fforest Fieldsi. A welcome sight. Nice enough pub in a traditional style, nice enough food - traditional pub grub kind,
