Reports of "New manager Mantas to concentrate on smaller brewers and cider producers. Hopes to have some music evenings as well as a monthly quiz. Maybe a pool team." Mantas is welcoming and delighted to see CAMRA members - already (he opened in July) has some regulars. Food next year. Rocket Ales favoured in rotation, with Saxby's cider planned.
