Ian Mapp left this review about Sips

Not in the GBG - I cannot remember whether they sold cask - but this is a perfect example of how to run a micro pub. A great choice of keg, with Delirium Barrel Aged Blonde a bit of a find and pound for pound, my most expensive pint. £16. Of course, I only had a half.

Only a handful of seats and was full on entry - including a man eating KFC at the bar (no need!). Closes at 10:30pm mid week and I did manage to get a table for my last 15 mins.

Guy running it is a enthusiast.... as you would expect.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Sips

Craft beer bar somewhat hidden away in a narrow-fronted unit off the covered passageway above the roaring water that once powered the former Bishops Mill. Two-part interior, with a seating area by the front windows and bar / bottle-shop area further back. With 12 of the 14 keg taps in use, there was in good selection in a range of styles from different breweries including my Polly's Quiet Hour (£3.40, half).

Strongers . left this review about Sips

Sips is a craft bar and bottle shop with a mix of seating at the front and a serving counter up the right wall towards the rear where it faces shelves of cans and bottles up the left. The large beer chalk board on the wall to the right of the counter has 14 spaces, 13 of which were filled with keg options that range from Arbor Ales’ ZZ Top at 4.3% to Tartarus Beers’ Abaddon Imperial Stout at an eye watering 17%, £9.90 for a third. Unwisely I went for a Raspberry Chouffe, £6 for half a 7%er, I would feel it later in the day! Lots of keg clips across the ceiling show an ever-changing crafty keg range that is available from the friendly staff. There’s a single toilet cubicle at the rear next to a small window with a nice view over the River Avon. The lack of cask will turn many a visitor off, but I enjoyed boring everyone who’d listen about how much cheaper the Chouffe is in Tesco, although I’m actually banned from drinking it at home. This is a decent crat bar that I’d visit every now and again for a change if I lived locally.
