Think he’s landlord at soar point now, if you can class that as being a landlord.

 

Such a shame man, absolutely no doubt Soar Point does what it does very well but he's wasted there.

 

Looking forward to nipping into the Salmon when I'm back over Christmas which wasn't quite right since Alex left tbh.

Always have pre match pint at the bowling green, shame it's closed. The food was naff by the end and the beer options predictable, missed the Titanic plum porter they used to serve.

 

It shouldn't fail given its location, sports crowd and student pull.

 

Hopefully someone takes its in and make a good go of it.

I will never go into the salmon again. Sadly.

Kirkstall Pale still sub £4.

Sold. See you in 20 mins.

Most of their own brand cask is reasonable brother; 4.50 tops for Black Band at 5.5%. Kirkstall Pale still sub £4. The keg you're lucky if it's sub a fiver. Think Veltins is bang on £5 same as Virtuous but away from that I dread to think

In all seriousness though that’s still fairly reasonable. I wonder if there’s any trade off on price in their tap room down by ITV? For example, Salt in Saltaire sell their beer off cheap, including the Ossett brewery stuff (if you’ve never been to Saltaire that’s a very good place for a booze up)

I live near kirkstall bridge man and I'll wander down the taproom on a Sunday and black band, their priciest cask, is the same price at all three at £4.50. But Kirkstall Pale at any of them is £4 or less and it's a lovely pint. 

 

Ossett must be doing alright because SALTs are popping up AOTS in town and it's suburbs. Need to go to saltaire my brother

Ooooo elaborate brother. I remember Mitch leaving was a blow and I left Leicester properly in August / Sept and the new staff just weren't good but the beer choice was still very decent.

Went in there for the France game, ended up being a scrap between some bird and her fella and some older bloke and his family, who were apparently related to the landlord  seemed like a great pub otherwise.

Yeah new one on the calls, my mate went in tonight said it’s the same inside as it was when it was stew and oyster but with nicer ales on, but very similar to the gaff by Greek Street. 
 

The big Salt pub in Saltaire on the crossroads is a class boozer. You’ve got Salt Cellar, don’t tell Titus, tulula’s and ring O’bells in walking distance too. Can’t beat it 

[westernpark]

A few at the black horse and one at the West End Brewery. Got told to stop drinking at bar in WEB(move to a seat), unfortunate interaction that sums up my experience of the place. Will still be a shame when it’s gone.

[Guest Lako42]

Anywhere good for a pre theatre drink near the little theatre? 

 

Parcel Yard obvious choice but what is the beer offering like these days 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Had a couple at Alfred in Meanwood, now in Headingley on a Vocation choco + hazelnut stout which is simply very nice you have to say

[Voll Blau]

A tin of Ožujsko Croatian lager. Nice to finally find it seven years after I first had it in Dubrovnik.

7 Guinness after an easy 2-0 jersey bulls win against Alton

Arcadia?

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Yeeeee brother! Not really fussed about the other gaffs in Headingley but Arcadia always has decent bevs on

[Voll Blau]

Currently on a Northern Monk Festive Star porter which is very tasty.

 

Had the Fairytale of Brew York gingerbread porter yesterday too which was also nice.

 

May have a Batemans Rosey Nosey in a bit as I'm in full Xmas Beer mode at the moment.

It's so central I'd probably just go the King's Head.

Always been my feel with WEB. Felt judged in there.

Cheers, went to Sommar for the 1st time and had a couple deya which is always top notch.

Also had an Italian beer I'd never heard of in maurizio's. It was a belter. An Abbey brewed number than is up there with the Belgian stuff imo 

 

 

[Anorak]

Samuel Smith Winter Welcome ale, followed by a couple of American IPAs, Fuzzy Method (Societe Brewing) and 

Rainbow Bright (Smog City) 

[Guest Manini]

I’ve come to talk about stout. Has anybody ever had the P2 Imperial Stout from the Heritage Brewing Co based in Burton (I believe)? 

[Voll Blau]

Santa's Little Belter from Glamorgan Brewing has been my favourite find so far this Christmas. Been selling it in Co Op.

In City Arms in Manchester, what a beautiful bloody gaff
