The Rusty Bucket, Bexley

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Rusty Bucket

Not quite sure whether to call it a craft beer bar or a micro-pub, but it certainly has aspects of both. There's no getting away from the fact that it's housed in a railway arch; obvious from the outside but you get rumbling reminders from above every few minutes (and hence the background music I suspect). That said, they have done quite a good job making it look light and airy, and the furniture looks smarter than most. Also has quite a few small tables out front. 15 keg taps on the bar-back offer a good range of beers of different styles and strengths. Slightly less obviously, there are also three handpumps just to the right of these, with Harvey's and Daleside's Blonde (£5.00) being dispensed on my visit.
