I hadn't been to the Hogshead for over 10 years when I took the opportunity to visit late yesterday evening. I'd forgotten just how good a pub this was.

A couple of bouncers were on the door, as there had been a football game in the city. But there was no problem getting in and it was easy enough to get to the bar.

The ale selection was Salopian Hop Twister & Oracle, Rooster's First World Problems, Enville Ale, White & Ginger, Robinson's Trooper, Wychwood Hobgoblin, Greene King Ghangly Ghoul & Black Sheep Silence of Lambs. Real ciders were all from Lilley's - Pineapple Cider, Mango Cider, Bee Sting Perry, Rum Cider, Peach Cider, Gladiator, Collider, Rhubarb Cider and Lemon & Lime Cider.

Apparently a CAMRA discount is given, but presumably only if requested as I recall having the card in my hand when I paid.

The interior is fairly modern and basic. TVs were showing the football.

With this beer selection, I would rate this pub as the best in Wolverhampton.

Yet another of Stonegate's town centre pubs, targetting students from the nearby university. What was once the Vine Inn according to the exterior brickwork has been gutted and refurbished in distressed wood and tiling, divided up into separate areas with numerous sports TVs. There is a largish enclosed yard at the rear for outdoor drinkers. An excellent range of beers though, with 9 or 10 ales of the more-interesting variety on, plus a number of craft keg offerings.

The Good Beer Guide throws up these random entries. You wouldn't think for a minute that this chainy looking pub would be in it.

However, there was a good choice of around 6 real ales on and my wainwright was superb.

Not sure the decor, ambiance or experience is my cup of tea but worth a visit for the tick.
