Ye Olde Salutation Inn, Nottingham

Did all a lot of pubs in Nottingham - and most of the Good Beer Guide 2021 entries. This was the pick of the lot, even if Notts Camra dont feel fit to sing its praises. The Ghost Ship was one of five or six hand pulls on and was in that good condition that I didn't veer away from it. Subjectively a "rock pub" - the music is loud but powered from the jukebox, so it all depends on who is in. And who is likely to be in? Everyone from Students to hard drinkers who know its one of the few traditional pubs open after 11pm. Loved it.

Due to plague rules I didn’t get a chance to nose about in this obviously old place, much restored and renovated no doubt. Checked in with NHS App then assigned a table for my estimated duration of visit then led to a table by a nice young lady. She did know all the cask beers on, about seven still I think, so I went local with Castle Rock Harvest Pale - ok but a bit tired.
