The Petersgate Tap, Stockport

A decent little pub. There is also an upstairs which makes it on the large size for a micro but that's just nitpicking I suppose. 6 handpumps on the bar with beers from Northern Monkey, Hawkshead, Ticketybrew, Rat and Thirst Class on on my Friday afternoon visit. A very red and white interior is probably not for those of you with a bitter blue persuasion. Its a good little place.

A micropub or bar (it's actually a decent size) with six hand pumps and some craft kegs. It's a long and spacious room with the bar counter on the left and some more seating upstairs. Ciders are available on hand pump and from polypins. I did make a note of the five beers available, but my notes are difficult to transcribe, and anyway a subsequent visit found five different beers on. I was very impressed on the second occasion by Lancaster Brewery's English Pale Ale, and wished I could have stopped for more. This pub is an easy five minutes from the station (for me on my bike) so is perfect for that awkward half hour between trains. Date of visits: 14th January and 6th May 2017
