Always Sometimes, Liverpool

Recently opened micropub at Cremona Corner. One fairly small room with a decent sized beer garden to the rear. Mainly bench seating which isn't particularly comfortable. We ordered a pint and a half and were served a pint and a 2/3 measure without being told. The beer quality ws OK, but not as good as their close(ish) competition. It's better than the Trap & Hatch, but nowhere near as good as the Four Ashes or The Old Tap.

Fairly new bar/micropub opened in a former shop not too far from Waterloo station. Apparently, they have been open around 6 months. The single room is fairly small with the bar occupying the far end. Dogs are welcome and there was definitely a smell of wet dog in the pub. Although, that could have been the one present. On the bar, there were 2 handpulls. One was clipped rather appropriately with Burton Bridge Damn Dog, the other with Titanic White Star. Craft beers were Northern Monk/Timothy Tayloe Northern Uprising, Tiny Rebel Cali Pale, Verdant Chromacity, Beak Hum & Bullhouse Suds. The owner/barman seemed quite friendly, as did the other customers. So, I wish them well in their venture. One minor annoyance was the serving of beer in two third measures. I'd normally order just a third in such establishments, but wasn't quite expecting here and was caught a bit off guard. This trend for not serving halves seems to be an annoying and unwanted development.
