The Brasshouse sits adjacent to the Birmingham Canal so there is minimal seating along the Waters Edge path that runs between the pub and the water. The large high-ceilinged interior is L-shaped with a main serving counter that faces high tables and raised seating up the right-hand side of the pub. Carpeted seating areas are found across the front and a raised seating area in the left rear corner is a faced from the right by a smaller serving counter. Premium and mainstream craft keg was available across the two counters, and I counted six hand pumps, five of which were in use drawing Tribute, London Pride, Silhill Brewery’s Black Sabbath as well as Goffs’ Pan-Asian Pale and Black Knight. Televisions throughout were airing muted cricket via Sky Sports and the 80s and 90s music was playing too loud to be classed as being in the background during a recent early midweek evening visit. The pub itself is good, but unfortunately there was a large group of very loud plonkers at the bar during my visit. I’ll give this place another try when next passing in the hope that there’s less of an assault on the ears.

Called in here on a Monday evening in June after finding the Tap & Spile closed. I wasn't really expecting much and was pleasantly surprised to find six hand pulls, all in service, with ales from Thornbridge, Silhill and Brummie. There was also a house ale and Hobgoblin Gold. The beers I had were priced at £2.80 for a half.

Food is served, live music was advertised, and at the time of my visit was showing the Euros so also seems to show sport on the TVs that are dotted around.

Situated along the lively Broad Street and alongside the canal network, the Brasshouse is another pub that I haven't been to since 2012. Advertised as open until midnight, they were cleaning up when we arrived, but still served us as it was well before midnight. However, unlike the Prince of Wales where we had just been, service here felt a bit more rushed and staff were eager to get us to drink up and out of the door.

The real ale range has improved since I was last here, with a choice of 6 on. These were Wolfpack Second Row, Purity Bunny Hop, Thornbridge/Timothy Taylor Artesian, Silhill Blonde Star, Sharp's Doom Bar & Green Duck The Storm. Craft beers were Beavertown Neck Oil, Purity Longhorn, Tiny Rebel Easy Livin' & Thornbridge Rock City IPA. I'm not sure this is the sort of location where 6 ales could be kept in a decent condition, as Broad Street is otherwise pretty much the place where you go to party and drink yourselves silly on cocktails, spirits and fizzy lagers. However, all credit to them for dispensing real ales. The ones we had were certainly drinkable, but not the best I've ever had.

Certainly an improvement on what it was.
