Pogue Mahone, Liverpool

Bills itself as the home of Liverpool’s best pint of Guinness, I’m not an expert on Guinness but it tasted pretty good to me and you get the choice of it being at the proper temperature for stout or icy. Otherwise nothing special or interesting about the keg only beers on sale. It is of course a proper Irish pub rather than some harmless boozer that has been set upon by a pubco marketing team and “orished”. Subdued lighting and bare brickwork with mixed seating arrangements, a few sofas and some tables and chairs form the décor along with flags of various Irish counties and some sports shirts. There is a big screen used to show Irish sport on occasion.
