The Victoria, Birmingham

I saw 4 cask ales available and all were expensive. Take away the rip off prices and it wouldn't be so bad. Descriptions are elsewhere. The Thornbridge Baize Chocolate Mint Stout was a lovely drink. And so it should be at these prices.

Called in on Friday, and I hadn't been in here since it got so many real ales on, so was pleasantly surprised by the choice, but oh dear. Do people really need the loud music blasting at them in the early afternoon. The bar from the street was empty apart from our group of 4, but there were a few people in the other bar area. We had 2 beers which were served fine. One from Tickety Brew Brewery Jasmine Green Tea 3.8% and Beerd Monteray 3.9% It was the most expensive beer I had on Friday costing £3.85 for two halves of beer under 4%. Maybe being a theatre bar raises prices.
