A good sized micro pub with an excellent choice of beers. The barman was very welcoming and very knowledgeable about his beers. Six ales on handpump, Hobson's Town Crier, Vocation Hawking, Malvern Hills Black Pear, Bristol Beer Factory Milk Stout, Church End Goat's Milk and Fownes At the Gates of Dawn. I initially went for the Milk Stout which was outstanding, followed by Church End. Kidderminster is becoming a micro pub haven and this new addition is another good pub to visit.

Delighted to see this in the Good Beer Guide 2022.
Shop conversion. The front is more or less complete now - with high tables in the window, leading to comfy chesterfields at the end. The trip to the loos does show the incompletion of the renovation.
They have big plans and at the end of 2022 are about to open their own brewery upstairs. That's going to be an interesting addition - at least they will have gravity on their side to dispense the beer.
Beers currently on are a fine balance between traditional and craft - they usually have 4-5 hand cask handpulls - with Church End Goats Milk the most frequest seen. Often some surprising additions, like Ma Pardoes Bumblehole - which I've only ever seen at Ma Pardoes :-)
Craft - usually have something from Deya (Steady Rolling man on last couple of visits) and other popular keg.
Very knowledgeable staff and a good atmosphere - with live music, open mic nights etc.

New micro-pub in an undistinguished converted shop, with limited decoration and no seating at the front which gives the place a slightly half-finished feel (which a trip out back to the toilets will confirm). Good selection of real ales from the six handpumps, though, with two Church End beers, Barking Mad from Froth Blowers (£3.20) and others from Salopian, Ludlow and Fownes.
