Going for my first indoor pint on way home shortly. Albeit at a very plush golf course clubhouse but it’s still an indoor pint. No mask 

Nearest thing to me is a putting range hitting tanks.

Been in’t Strawbury Duck with the wife and pooch today. Pleasant experience really, name and number left in the book, ordered the booze and food, paid cash. One way system around the pub.

Decent pub grub and a cracking pint of Hen Harrier

Went into the little " Tap & Bottles " inside Cambridge arcade in Southport today, well stocked for hipster beer luvvies and tables outside to clock the talent walking past from the Station to Lord St.

Incorrect.

Holts is a beltin pint.

Full of flavour .

In Westhoughton it is the most consistant pint on Market St. Never had a bad pint in the Lion.

Very surprised about The Old Monkey , its normally spot on.

 

 

Bloody scary that spa! Nip in occasionally got a coffee if I have patients to see up there. Always a load of scary 12 year olds outside who look like they want to mug me of my latte 🤣

Some on here having a pop at the Holts probably drink all that IPA watered-down with dandelion craft beer crap that taste like a damp meadow!

Holt’s is great IF that’s what you drink all night, or it’s your first few pints.

It tends to be the case that the pubs serving it sell plenty and it’s always fresh.
