Quinno _ left this review about The Real Ale Classroom

The most pubby of their outlets if clearly DIY in ethos (fairly naff compressed wood shaving boarded walls) and was opened in 2017 on the site of a former TV repair shop. Layout is a main front bar with a couple of rooms behind. Hard to tell what's on with the barrels semi-obscured, turned out to be three cask in the end and I tried the lot (Almasty Bitter, Rivington Finally and Three Acre Citra) clocking-in at NBSS 2, 3 and 3.5. Bit of a default choice for Lutterworth and is inevitably GBG listed. Only three cask on a Saturday did feel a bit lacklustre though.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Real Ale Classroom

Although this micro-pub has two more rooms (one with a wood-burner and the other a lounge called The Library) behind the compact bar area, neither of these are large so - with the somewhat rustic look - it all feels quite cosy. Up to ten cask beers can be served from a screened stillage behind the counter, and on a surprisingly busy Monday evening visit I found four on. Although hardly local, these included a pair from the favoured brewery, Two by Two from Wallsend: Session IPA (£4.40) and a stronger Autumn Ale. excellent.

Micropub that ticks boxes in terms of beer offering (cask, keg, bottles and cans), although had piper muzak and although bring shop conversion has decent garden out back. Bar is immediately to your left on entry with barrels in partially hidden compartment s behind. There's a further room through a door opposite the entrance and another room to the left of this second room; so, three in total. Wines, gins, whiskies and rums also available as well as some ciders. Ten cask racked with four on at any one time, all listed on an old school pull-down blackboard on the wall opposite the bar. My Three Blind Mice "Shine on Me" (an American Pale) was excellent. A must-do if you thinking of visiting this Leicestershire Market town.
