Mist Rolling Inn, Nottingham

Upon entering this shop conversion you find a basic square room, a mix of seating but also of a basic wooden nature, the walls are papered with a heavy duty bare brick pattern , though this does look quite effective. The bar is to the rear of the room with four hand pumps, the selection was well balanced with a Porter, Best Bitter, Pale and a Brown Ale. Unfortunately things went a little down hill at this point, I chose Little Critters Pumpkin Pie Porter and Big Steve had whatever the pale beer was, the guy serving seemed to have trouble with the till and card machine this took an age, Steve had to take his beer back which was approaching vinegar, it was replaced with no quibble for the Brown Ale which Steve said was OK, the Pale pumpclip remained unturned, meanwhile my beer whilst drinkable was decidedly poor quality and was verging on flat by the time I got through it. I liked the initial feel of the place but the beer let it down badly.

Scribblers Ales are apparently no more and their erstwhile taproom has been taken over by three guys who worked in the local licensed trade pre-pandemic, they are allegedly the three named in the pub’s new title. No real changes internally except the beer range, Dancing Duck (not a fan) Leather Britches (not a fan), and Uttoxeter (first time drinking and yes fine with that). Beer quality remains high.

A long thin one room micro, brewery tap for Scribblers Ales, not quite to my taste but well enough kept. Bench seating down both sides, raised on one side and with booth like ends the other. Toilets in basement. Their anti plague procedures were spot on as well.
