The staff seemed hassled (they were very busy) and while I was able to test taste a couple of the beers (neither of which I liked) I then had to choose what I wanted and 'blindly' selected a third drink which was worse than the ones I'd tested. I will go again, as the beers change and I'm confident that on another night I'll find something I enjoy and I'll have an overall...
