The Pheasant, Telford

Well what a difference from my last visit , the Pheasant has been taken on by the Ironbridge Brewery and has had a very good re-furb . The pub is clean and tidy if unremarkable from the outside , inside it is basically one room(thanks to a couple of re-furbs in the 70s and 80s) but a few pillars break things up , there is an old brick fire place to the right and the bar runs along the left , the floor is a mixture of wood , tiles and carpet . On the bar are nine hand-pulls , eight for ale and one with cider , there were a good selection of ales from Oakham , Elgoods , Everards and Rowton and the two i tried were in decent nick , the cider was Scrambler . The keg taps are mounted on a Beer wall , ten in all with a mixture of upmarket lagers and Craft beers . Service was good and friendly . There is a beer garden to the rear alongside the old stable block which over the years has seen service as various Resturants but is now undergoing conversion to a Brewhouse for Ironbridge Brewery . This is a great addition to the Wellington pub scene , well worth a visit .
