Bucking Fastard left this review about Bottle House
Recently opened micropub in a long,narrow interior with racks of bottles and cans for sale,a drinking shelf in the front window and a small key keg bar at the rear where bench seating is available.
The guv'nor is a friendly chap ,a good host and made us feel welcome.The locals are a chatty bunch too,conversation flowed easily.
Draught beer will always be key keg,so not fizzy and the chiller unit isn't cranked up to 11,so temperature fine.Four choices on my trip from Redchurch brewed house lager called Leighton Lager (NBSS 3.5),Staggeringly Good Little Arms Big Ambition (NBSS 4) ,Mad Squirrel Sumo and Aztec (NBSS 4.5),a superb strong 6.4% IPA which hides it power dangerously.
This was a great visit and I will most certainly be back.Beer tasting sessions are organised as well as a quiz and the guv'nor will source beer from far and wide,he is a knowlegeable chap on the beer front.Opening hours need to be checked before planning a visit,closed on Monday and Tuesday and after 10pm unless demand warrants staying open later.
A must visit in LB,good double header with the Black Lion almost next door.
