Quinno _ left this review about Chesterfield Alehouse
All expense spared (bar a tin of red paint). Very basic and unusual two-level interior, with the servery at the upper. The stairs and hallway to the bogs resembled a crack den from a Channel 4 police documentary. Three cask on and my Verdant Fresh Hop Harlequin was pretty good (NBSS 3.5) alongside some eclectic craftykeg. As a venue it wasn’t particularly pleasant at all – one to pop into for a quick tick for the quality and range - rather than a session. Rated 5.5 - cask quality and beer range rounds it up - perhaps reluctantly.

A small micro-pub that probably is rightly in the current GBG for the quality and selection of its real ale but was another micro that I didn’t find that comfortable as a pub going experience and didn’t warm to.
A basic shop conversion with a small downstairs room complemented by an even smaller space up a set of steep stairs, there just wasn’t enough here to give me a warm pub glow, especially as the only seat I could get had me staring at an accessible toilet.
A very good line up of five ales and several interesting keg beers as described by Mr Fastard below and my half of Wilde Childe Primitive Satisfaction Pale Ale was certainly on point. Yes it should be included in any beer crawl of Chesterfield , but our next two ports of call, in the shape of the Chesterfield Arms and Neptune Beer Emporium, reminded us how good a proper pub visit could be, if any was needed.

Sharing some similar observations with BF below, my recollections – i.e. notes – describe this place as resembling a ‘doss house’ and ‘smelly’; I certainly recall the smell.
With six pumps, I went for the Brew York Blonde, price and quality not recorded.
My guess is that I really didn’t like this place.
Rated: 3.5.
