Strongers . left this review about BrewDog Carlisle
Carlisle’s BrewDog is long and thin with a central serving counter on the left-hand wall with the usual huge white beer board above the back bar, over 20 craft keg options were listed. There’s also a well-stocked beer fridge for those that think 20 beer draught beer options isn’t enough. On both sides of the counter there’s seating at the front and rear, and high tables run up the right-hand wall opposite. At the very rear are a couple of pool tables as well as some booth seating. I enjoyed the old timers background music, but the BrewDog adverts on the televisions throughout were a bit cringe. The bars of this chain don’t seem to be as busy as they once were, I’m not sure if the gimmick is wearing thin or if people just can’t afford the elevated prices anymore.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about BrewDog Carlisle
Typical semi-rustic / semi-industrial look, with the usual mix of rather uncomfortable seating and tables of different heights. However, it did have the best (non-)background music of the various city-centre pubs I visited on a Wednesday evening. Apart from that, some 15 different beers were available (from a theoretical maximum of 25 taps) so there was plenty of choice, and I went for the 'staff selection' MFU Gamma collaboration (£5.00, schooner) which was good rather than great.

Long thin bar with booths and long high tables to the front, then the servery down one side with high tables and chairs to the other side. Very industrial decor with distressed walls and bulkhead lights, a big mural graces the far end wall. The counter is faced with railway sleepers, quite apt for a railway town like Carlisle wittingly or not. Spot on if slow anti plague service, wait to be seated, conducted to table, given drinks menu, order taken, beer brought, pay by card. Sound track included the 8 minute version of American Pie. A dozen Brewdog beers and 11 guests were listed on the beer menu, three beers priced as 2/3 and five as 1/2 pints, I didn’t notice anything draught (or draft as Brewdog have it, nasty un-British English, unless they do actually mean rudimentary or unfinished beers?) priced outside UK weights and measures legislation as my friend Aqualung did.
