The Green Dragon, London Colney

Three years have past so a revisit was due. Something didn't seem right.
The three beers are still the same. Doom Bar, London Pride and GK Abbot.
I'm not sure if this is a freehouse but surely you wouldn't have these three ghastly ales on more than a week - yet alone three years!
Their website seems to suggest that this is the case.
I will not be returning for a third time. Shame really because the pub isn't too bad.

White Hart Hotel, St Albans

Good grief, why would you come here?
A lack of atmosphere and not a place to have a drink, after all, it is an hotel and not a pub.
One beer was in the process of being changed, so I had the Oakham's Scarlet Macaw.
This was in a worse state than the one being cleaned. I advised the staff to make this their next job.
So it was a pint of Gold Bear's Ford Prefect. The replacement ale was 3 Brewers Mild.

Although a good choice of real ale I suspect it needs to be consumed quicker to avoid going off.
The range of food choice is poor. I was charged a £3.50 service charge just for the bar-girl to type in my order.
I told her she can take that off (which she did).
A barman was also present but between them English was not their first language.
Maybe okay for a resident late evening, otherwise not for the general public.
