Your last Pint?

[oakman]

The Ask Italian place on Silver Street has been taken over by the guys from Gadabout and Tonne. Think it should be open before Xmas.

Very jealous.

Tree House Oak-aged ESB is better than any bitter I had this spring while in London.

[SecretPro]

Picked up a 4 pack of Magic Rock Dark Arts Surreal Stout on a whim earlier.

 

A 6% black stout and very nice it is too. 

[Tilley]

The best pub in the country has to be The Wenlock and I’ll let @Miquel The Work Geordie argue otherwise 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Ffs he's logged in - that's the official Dom ladies and gents 

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

You have to say what a day on the sauce it's been with @Tilley - will declare right here right now though that the Old Fountain is on its arse after being a half of famer for us both. Sutton Arms class, the Wenlock HOH MA GOD SIMPLY GOATED even the George and Monkey near Kings X was full of brunettes dressed like Johnny Bravo, hate to say it but your boy was in DreamLand 

 

MES QUE UN CAPITAL

Good to hear the BBBB rated high 

[CosbehFox]

nice weather and a good result ensured Leicester was the busiest I’d seen it in a good while. 
 

Oddly went Walkabout - now I tell you what it’s better than Distillery and any other chain in the city. Tellies galore. A real solid effort for somewhere which should be shockingly shite. 
 

R&D was busting, good to see

[Miquel The Work Geordie]

Went in the Volley near Old St yesterday for the second half of Palace / Liverpool, was previously the Drafthouse / Brewdog before they sodded off. Pretty decent selection of keg and a good crowd, tidy place to watch the football if you're ever that way

[Dr The Singh]

On coppertail brewery in Tampa, drinking hopquest west coast ipa 8.2%

[Lako42]

A pint of banshee ipa (Everards Ltd edition) in the Bradgate today..... Banging to be honest. 

 

Also had a pint of Titanic Stout which is so much better than Guinness. 

 

Hearing people ask for a Guinness and decide Morretti would be a better replacement than a titanic made me cringe.

Ultimate cringe is walking past a pub that has a board out front advertising it has Carling, John Smith, Stella, and Strongbow.

 

So why exactly should I go in?

Match report from the weekend 

 

Stoke Newington - pre match 

 

Jolly Butchers - had a good name, but zero atmosphere, barmen banter of the lowest form. Wasn’t impressed 

 

Auld Shiellagh - The Devonshire before it came along. Superb 

 

Kentish Town - post match 

 

Southampton Arms - excellent as always. 
 

The Pineapple - good crowd in here, hidden away, a strange format but the beers deduct some points. 
 

Sunday 

 

(combined with dinner) - The Plimsoll Finsbury Park. Quite simply 10/10 grub. A burger sent from heaven, pasta from the kings. Steady Rolling Man on tap. Bit of celeb spotting. Welcome to heaven. 
 

Queens Head, X Cross - lovely pint of light bulb to kill some time. 
 

A real winner of a weekend which has reignited the need to continue awaydays. 
 

Scored very high on the MTWG B.B.B.B scale. Brunette, Bob haircut, Boots and Beer 

You've inspired me to restart my "data research" on my London pubs website, in particular around Camden/Kentish Town. Not quite a comprehensive list, but getting there - use top filters to select Beer Gardens, or Cash accepted etc.  Camden- Local pubs – London Pubs Directory (listlondonpubs.com)

Already got entries for Paddington, Marylebone and Charing Cross. Still some gaps. Next big project will have to be Kings Cross.

The Robin was opened by the guy who used to run the Southampton Arms I think. The Magdala is one I often go to. Really nice pub. Black Lion in Kilburn is very beautiful but the beer isn't amazing imo and it has the downside of being in Kilburn.

I mean it's quite a different crowd to Clerkenwell and Angel. Most of the women are over 50 and half of those seem to be lesbians.

SIGN ME UP

[Dr The Singh]

I was in the US last week purchased 6 crates of IPA beer and fly it back, happy days, the shit i got beats any IPA brewed in the UK. 

 

Made a friend (difficult as it sounds) my buddy has a export business and sending me IPA every month.

[bovril]

Pint of Tower Ale which is apparently a collaboration between Hook Norton and Everards. In the Spoons near Chancery Lane which I've decided is the most civilized pub in London.

[grobyfox1990]

Loads of varied cask at the castle in Leicester

Boxing tonight is going to be classic

[Voll Blau]

Couple of Old Originals at lunch. Now enjoying a Hannen Alt, which might be the closest German beer to an English ale going.
