a proper Pub
We pride ourselves on being a traditional village pub. In the winter, you're guaranteed a cosy bar area with a real fire to relax by. In the summer, there's plenty of outdoor space to enjoy your drinks al fresco on our terrace and beer garden.
Along with our regular beers on tap we also offer a regularly changing range of Guest Ales. We also have an extensive wine list and a selection of Gins, Spirits and Cocktails to top our drinks offer.
Beers
Bitter
Our current real ale offer is based on Devon ales, although during Late Spring, Summer and Early Autumn we have guest ales from further afield with the likes of Timothy Taylors, Bradfields and several other "Northern" ales.
We will also shortly be adding to our offer several Belgian Bottled beers.
Although we have three beer engines, in the quieter months of winter we only utilize two, currently serving Dartmoor Jail Ale, and a rotating local Guest ale.
Dartmoor Jail Ale ABV 4.8%
A full-bodied, deep golden brown beer, Jail Ale has a well-rounded flavour and a rich, moreish aftertaste. Dartmoor Brewery is based in Princetown and has achieved many top awards with Jail Ale in the Premium Bitter categories at numerous beer festivals.
South Hams Stumble Bee ABV 4.2%
A hoppy beer with a little sting in the tail brewed in the South Hams using Maris Otter Malt with a touch of local golden honey courtesy of our little Stumble friend.
In addition to the real ales, we also serve from keg:
Shipyard American Pale Ale ABV 4.5%
An easy drinking, American style pale ale bursting with fruity, citrus hop flavour, gooseberry and pine aroma. Dry hopped with a quartet of American hop varieties - Chinook, Cascade, Columbus and Centennial delivering a big, bold, brash hoppy beer.
Lager
We currently serve two lagers from well known brewer, Carlsberg, one session and one premium:
Carlsberg Lager ABV 3.8%
Completely rebrewed from head to hop, Carlsberg lager has a light and refreshing quality with a smooth, full mouthfeel and a perfect balance of bitterness and sweetness. Distinctive citrus hop aromas deliver a greater depth of flavour and a hoppy, moreish aftertaste to the final sip.
San Miguel Especial ABV 5%
San Miguel is a pilsner-style lager, golden yellow in colour with reflections of old gold. On the nose it offers hints of smoke against a background of grains. On the palate it is balanced, toasted, of medium bitterness with a prevailing subtle toasting of the barley. The medium persistence aftertaste holds echoes of liquorice.
To complement the above we also offer a bottled lager:
Peroni Nastro Azzurro ABV 5.1%
Peroni is a premium Italian lager, with a distinctive, intensely crisp and refreshing character.
