Green painted micro with a whacky ceiling and enough old clips on the wall to keep it characterful. Five on with some cheap breweries in the mix so I went for the Bristol Cinder Toffee which was pretty decent from the stillage out back (NBSS 3.5). Think there were also some ciders for the apple-grapplers. Bit of a 6th Form atmosphere and a bit chilly. Terrible EMO sounds from the speakers, barman’s choice almost certainly. I preferred it in here to Totally Tapped. [EDIT – since my visit and me getting round to doing the review six weeks later, the place has closed]

Yes I agree a nice little micro pub with character. After visiting the new micropub/ bottle shop down the road this one felt much more like a proper ale house. An impressive collection of beer mats now adds to the bar feel for this one.
A chalk board detailed the five ales and two keg beers available from a cool room behind the bar and a nice feature was that it gave the distance in miles of the bar from the brewery and as for my visit this was nothing under 100 miles except for 22, a copper bitter from Dancing Duck so I went for this one.
A pretty good real ale micropub and certainly better than the traditional Craft Union pub just round the corner.

A cheeky little micro off the High Road - a basic shop conversion with some interesting ales served from a cool room behind the tiny bar. A number of beer fridges contained what was claimed to be the "largest selection of cans in Beeston". The cask ales on this visit were Almasty Simple Pleasures, Campbell St Anyone here studied Latin?, Burning Sky Aurora, Milestone Cromwell, and Madcap Monumental, with six or more ciders also listed. Good place to stop off for a pint.
