Rockers pub on a busy main road heading towards the railway station. It was fairly busy on our Saturday evening visit. It's possible that they were preparing for some live music later in the evening. Although I didn't notice anything advertised.
Handpulls are spread across two banks and have a good selection of ales. Regular beers are Castle Rock Harvest Gold, Sharp's Doom Bar, Robinson's Trooper, Adnams Ghost Ship & Wychwood Hobgoblin Gold. Guest beers were Castle Rock Screech Owl & Elsie Mo & Titanic Plum Porter & Raspberry Pale. I also happened to noticed a couple of boxed ciders at the back of the bar - Weston's Rosie's Pig & Lilley's Chocolate Apple. A CAMRA discount is mentioned on WhatPub, but I didn't see it actively promoted, perhaps as Ian Mapp says it's because it hasn't featured in the Good Beer Guide since 2013.
I quite liked this pub. Despite its grungy atmosphere, it apparently has quite a lot of history to it.

Did all a lot of pubs in Nottingham - and most of the Good Beer Guide 2021 entries. This was the pick of the lot, even if Notts Camra dont feel fit to sing its praises.
The Ghost Ship was one of five or six hand pulls on and was in that good condition that I didn't veer away from it.
Subjectively a "rock pub" - the music is loud but powered from the jukebox, so it all depends on who is in.
And who is likely to be in? Everyone from Students to hard drinkers who know its one of the few traditional pubs open after 11pm.
Loved it.

Due to plague rules I didn’t get a chance to nose about in this obviously old place, much restored and renovated no doubt. Checked in with NHS App then assigned a table for my estimated duration of visit then led to a table by a nice young lady. She did know all the cask beers on, about seven still I think, so I went local with Castle Rock Harvest Pale - ok but a bit tired.
