Hobgoblin Gold in the White Horse, Aberystwyth. The pub is massively changed from uni days 20 years ago when it was a typical student place called Varsity.

This week more visits to Aberystwyth, Machynlleth, Borth and perhaps a drive out to Brecon.

Oxfordshire/Northants borders.

Sharps -- Doom Bar
Inbev -- Stella (keg)
Marston's -- Bass
Slaughterhouse -- Saddleback (3PT)
Timothy Taylor -- Landlord

Poor drinking options with BOTW by default going to Slaughterhouse Saddleback ,a very standard bitter and only passing the three pint test in The Wharf (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/36972/)due to dehydration while boating and lock working on (finally) a sunny day.

Next week another quiet one saved by the footie.
