Beverage Program Score
The editorial take
The Crown & Thistle Pub is a British-style pub with a beer program that stays close to its theme. The website shows Robinsons Trooper, a premium British beer at 4.7% ABV, and an on-tap section that includes draught stout, which also appears in the Stout Float. Guinness shows up on the menu as a pie ingredient and in a recent customer account. The tap range isn't detailed beyond these points, so the strength is a focused, recognizable British pub pour rather than a deep list.
- What should I order?
- Start with Robinsons Trooper, the 4.7% ABV British beer shown on the website, or a draught stout if you want the on-tap side of the program. The Stout Float uses draught stout, and the Guinness Short Rib Pie carries the beer theme into the food menu.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Drinkers who want a British pub beer identity rather than a wide-ranging tap list. The named selections and draught stout reference suit anyone ordering a single pint alongside pub food.
- When should I go?
- A pub meal is the natural fit, especially if you want a beer with the Guinness Short Rib Pie or the Stout Float. The packet supports pairing occasions, not specific hours or quieter windows.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The beer program is tied directly to the British pub format: Robinsons Trooper at 4.7% ABV, an on-tap section with draught stout, and menu items like the Stout Float and Guinness Short Rib Pie that repeat the beer theme rather than treating it as a separate list.

Guinness appears in a recent customer account and in the Guinness Short Rib Pie. The range beyond these points isn't detailed, so the score stays in the good band.
