Opened late August 2018, this is a small bar serving 'craft' beers from a converted barrel with six taps. Large range of bottled and canned beers are also available.

It was originally intended to perhaps introduce a cask ale, and a handpump has been reported as being installed in late December 2023 but it is not known what beer is served on it.
