Rob Hunter left this review about Café Beermoth

I have been to Café Beermoth several times since my 2021 review. I always enjoy the variety of beer available, a mix of cask and keg, though it does sometimes feel a bit of a mission craning your neck to read all the A4 sheets of paper high up at the back of the bar in order to take in what is available. That said, the venue is Untappd Verified, so those using that platform can peruse the menu from the comfort of their mobile device. My most recent visit was on a Friday afternoon in June, where I went for the Jaipur (from the Union) on cask. I'm not sure it is necessarily an improvement over regular cask Jaipur, but nonetheless it was good to try it. My half set me back £3.15, which I don't consider at all bad for a fancy beer place, especially compared to the prices in some of the bog standard places I had visited on the same day.

Raised booths to the front by the windows, which quickly fill up during busy periods. Standard tables and chairs elsewhere. There is an upstairs area, which I have not investigated for many years, but used to offer additional seating. I assume it still does?

Well described, one large rectangular room with some comfortable booth seating opposite the bar, otherwise largely utilitarian. Lacking any real charm inside, it felt fairly depressing despite the raucous punk rock on the speakers. Wide selection of obscure beers on the taps, a bit difficult to read though and I mistakenly chose 2/3 of a fighting strength IPA… only realised they sold cask afterwards.

Yesterday was my first visit to Cafe Beermoth for over 6 years. It's a fairly inconspicuous bar occupying a large, modern building. There's a good range of both cask and keg beers along the bar. Whilst there are handpulls at the rear of the bar, there are no pumpclips on display and it's not easy to identify which of the beers listed are cask and which are keg.

However, on our Saturday afternoon visit, cask beers turned out to be Left-Handed Giant Beer Number 7, The Kernel Dry Stout Cashmere, Runaway Queen Bees & Stone's Throw, Cloudwater Strata In Your Heart, Squawk Pavo & RedWillow Faithless 191. Craft beers were Rivington Days of Candy & Poison of Madness, Schlenkerla Aecht Schlenkerla Eiche - Doppelbock, Cloudwater Good Bubble, Jester King Hazy IPA, 100 Degrees, Spon Three Year Blend & Doom Forge & Saint Mars of the Desert D'Or Mouse. There were no ciders that I could see.

I'm not a fan of the industrial decor and staff behind the bar seemed a bit gormless and were overhwelmed by a group of 7 of us walking in. In addition, there's no wifi here, which is particularly frustrating when there's no phone signal either.

This place undoubtedly has a great beer selection, but lacks in terms of atmosphere and service. Handy if you fancy something a little different, but not really a place to linger.
