The Station, Preston Park, Brighton 15th September 2007

For the first time in any Sussex pub I felt distinctly uncomfortable walking in here. The customers at the bar were rude and made stupid comments, although the woman behind the bar did her best to be welcoming.

Arundel Sussex Mild (3.7%): Incredibly sweet mild. A little too sweet for me but good and smooth.

There was an unusual mural on the outside wall but I didn’t want to spend any more time at the bar, so I didn’t ask for any details. You can just see it in the picture above the bonnet of the white van.
