Untraditional Pub, E17

No cask. Outlet for Pillars so mostly their own offering of the Haus Lager, the Pilsner, the Original Pale, the Helles and the Vienna Lager. Guests were the London Black from Anspach & Hobday, the Crafty Apple Cider, the Body Shift Pale Ale from Queer Brewing and the Saint Monday APA.

This venue is indeed untraditional! It is in a container type construct, up a flight of stairs from the street level. The bar is a small hatch inside the covered part of the premises with a ledge down the right-hand side and some tall metal stools down the left-hand side on a narrow walk through from the entrance. The seating capacity here is outside and is a lot of regular tables of the trestle variety, the area covered and funky music being blasted out on the ceiling-based sound system. There is a quieter outside seating area round the back with the same trestle-based seating arrangements. There are a lot of food outlets in the complex (to call it that). Thought it was a reasonable venue compared to many of the food court type venues offering generic keg beers, although their beer range is a bit too much on the lager end of the spectrum for me.
