    Thanks for the update. There's a good selection of smaller brewery cask beers at the Barrel Vault, though yesterday I had a pint of Yeastie Boys Distant Sun at The Queens Head and despite being a 7.2% black IPA, cost me £4.40, with a standard pint costing about £4.10; and there's a further discount with a CAMRA card.

    That Yeasty boys beer would be £7 in the Craft Beer chain.

    And probably £9.00 if there was a keg version. That's why I avoid 'craft' beer and 'craft' bars, much to the gratitude of my wallet.

    A double whammy in Columbia Road last night:

    Birdcage - something crafty at 6.5% but £4.75 a half...

    ...then...

    The Royal Oak - Small Beer Steam at 2.7% but £3.05 a half.

    I think at 2.7 you only pay half the beer duty so that's a ridiculous price for Small beer.HAd that beer on cask for £4.50 .

    Stupidly didn't notice the price when tapping for a pint of Wild River at Herne Hill's Half Moon, just seen bank a/c, £6.35!!
    If I'd noticed I would have told them to keep it, and it was off, had to return it for a Pride in the end - the only other thing across 8 or so pumps, pathetic.

    Described by Fuller's thus: 'A hoppy, craft-inspired pale ale'; hence the 'craft' price.
