No expense made on soft furnishings. This had the feel of an eviscerated butchers - all chipped white wall tiles, leading down to a bar at the far end. Wooden tables along one side. The odd photo.
Its the beer that lures the punters in. When I tell you the table next to me we all on green coloured beer - you will know Vault City were in town. About nine other keg options including a Belgian Quad that untappd had listed as "No longer in Production"
I did enjoy my Nothing Bound Pale Ale brewed just for this venue, suggesting it was a permanent fixture.
Fantastic music on. Never imbibed to Death Cab for Cutie before. But I liked it.

Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about Cork & Cage
Very basic craft beer bar in a narrow shop unit with industrial canteen-style furniture and decoration limited to black & white photographs along one side wall. Just an empty counter and ten unlabelled keg taps on the bar-back, but these were in a range of interesting styles (many Belgian). Deciding not to start the evening with something like one of the lambics made with wine grapes as an added ingredient (£6.00 for a 1/3rd), I went for a pint of the local Drain Troll from Dig Brew (£4.80).

Interesting little place with a real mix of craft ales available. Some odd ones that I'd never heard of. I was inspired to pick something different so I went for a 6.5% Plum sour from Vault City, Edinburgh. I am not normally a massive fan of sour beers but this was really nice. £4.50 for a half but I really enjoyed it. Nice to leave your comfort zone once in a while! I'd happily call again. Card only.
