Clue is in the title - sports bar. No ale available, but cocktails and karaoke are.

The title says it all really, this is a sports bar, not a pub. There are seven plasma’s around the place, and a projection screen, so there’s no chance of missing any action.
On the plus side, it’s conveniently located just off the main shopping street, and it’s got some nice windows that fold right back, so it’s a good spot to sit and watch the world go by.
Unfortunately, that’s about all I can really say in it’s favour. Everything was served in plastic bottles, not only draft beer, but even bottled drinks were decanted. Asking for a bottle of Corona and getting it served in a plastic half pint glass with a wedge of lime floating in the top isn’t quite the same somehow. Even more bizarre was the Guinness – it came from a can, was poured in to a (plastic) glass, and was then placed on a device that looked like nothing more than a metal plate, which was apparently supposed to release the gas and turn it in to a proper draft pint!. This was particularly sneaky as the metal plate was attached to what appeared to be a Guinness font – only close inspection revealed that there was no tap.
The only beer on offer was a Bass creamflow or similar concoction. The cider was Thatcher’s Gold.
