Kirkstall Bridge Inn, Kirkstall, Leeds

I was here a few days after a photo of the flooded beer garden featured on many news sites, with two drinkers clutching their pints while sitting at benches with water up to their chests. Maybe this put a few prospective customers off, as it was very quiet at the time of my visit, whereas the West End House had been reasonably busy, for a winter Monday afternoon. Of the eight hand pumps available, half featured beers from Kirkstall brewery, the others being from Yorkshire micros. An array of keg fonts from "craft" breweries was also noted. I went in the street level entrance, where the bar is very smart, and didn't explore further (see other reviews below). I had a pleasant visit, with the smell of an open coal fire and the sound of unidentifiable indy music on the sound system accompanying my Grey Hawk Dark Desert Highway (from Copper Dragon's "craft" brewery) in a multi-sensory experience.
