点评:Please Note: This is a review of the Brewery Shop only.
First time I have been here in quite a few years, so it was quite shock to see the changes. The Malthouse Kitchen was removed into a separate room adjoining the shop, whereas it was integral to the shop, as was the tasting bar.
The shop is now now fully kitted out with many products that are NOT Hook Norton related, which was a surprise. The prices now reflect all regional Brewery offerings, in that they are more expensive than any Supermarket offering their beers. Obviously if you want a specific beer you have to pay the price.
But for me more disturbingly is that it is really 'gloomy' in the shop, i.e. it is very poorly lit. A bit like a 24 hour supermarket when visited in the middle of the night. You can see but not well.
As with all my visits in the last decade, I find the staff who serve there are abrupt and not exactly friendly. Perhaps it was the questions I asked.

这是我好几年来第一次来这里,所以看到这些变化让我很震惊。Malthouse Kitchen 被搬到了商店旁边的一个单独的房间,而它和品酒吧一样,都是商店不可或缺的一部分。
商店现在配备了许多与 Hook Norton 无关的产品,这让人很惊讶。价格现在反映了所有区域性 Brewery 产品的价格,因为它们比任何超市提供的啤酒都贵。显然,如果你想要某种特定的啤酒,你就得付钱。
但对我来说更令人不安的是,商店里真的很“阴暗”,也就是说,灯光很暗。有点像半夜去 24 小时超市。你看得见,但看得不清楚。
就像我过去十年来的所有访问一样,我发现在那里服务的员工很粗鲁,也不友好。也许是我问的问题。
