Few good pints at west end brewery and mill hill 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Had a few with Scouse today; Brunswick, Bankers Cat, Brew York, Friends of Ham, North. Everywhere was heaving around 2pm.

A Round Corner Gunmetal black lager and a Braybrooke Helles at the Beerhouse in Harborough.

 

Also had a couple of Langton North Stars at the Three Swans which were very tasty.

Fair few most tables were full. It’s a very odd place but very good. Food looked pretty decent too from what I saw.

I know what you mean about it being odd. 

 

Cant put my finger on why but no windows and the narrow nature maybe

Yeah and the fact that it’s a very good real ale pub combined with a cafe serving decent toasties.

You all will like the first part of the sentence and boo the second part.

 

I had Bristol Beer Factory milk stout at The Tap which was the business before Derby County game last Friday.

I also went to Nottingham recently and nipped into one of @Miquel The Work Geordie's recommendations The Junkyard Bottle Shop which had a good variety of beers but was leaning fair bit into hipster bar vibe too much.   I also went to Tap House where you pull your own pints but it was quite pricey and again leaning into hipster bar vibe.

 

Enjoyed Crosskeys pub most of all and had a Castle Rock red ale which was a real winter pleaser.

Why is Castle Rock Harvest Pale always about? 

 

It's utter shite

Yeah Junkyard is a bit like that brother, sounds like you'd have liked the Keans Head a stone's throw away tbh! Lovely place. Tap House is a bit naff for me

 

After the stations immediate vicinity then Sneinton and Canning Circus are probably the best areas for good pockets of close together gaffs but both ever so slightly out the way

Dipping into a wide variety of gaffs are all part of adventure indeed! 

 

Don't mean to sound little ungrateful in my original post- cheers for the recommendations and keep them coming friend.

[Stuntman_Mike]

A swift X Porter in The Dog in Burton. 

 

Great pint and gaff 

[Eurofox]

£149 a litre at Tesco for unleaded. 😇

Pint of Ghost of Dwarfmas Past by Fownes.  Horrific name.  One of the best cask stouts I've had for a good while.  Better body than Lusardi in her prime.

Cobra now whilst cooking a chicken madras

[Stuntman_Mike]

Couple of refreshing Devon Red ciders with dinner at the Otter in Kegworth. Brilliant food too, would definitely go back again.

[westernpark]

3 pints of the guest ale at the proper Black Horse. Steam ahead, an amber ale. Then a tiger to finish.

Tried a pint of Victoria Malaga lager last night. Move over Madri, there's a new cerveza in town.

Was this in a store in England? If so where? I remember it well from last summer when I spent a few days in Malaga.
