I couldn't find a more recent version of (PG) pub of the year lists but would welcome a view of your poty, or top-5?
Not sure what mine would be after another year of abject failure to record where I've been or what I've drunk, must try harder...
Visits to Nottingham, Beeston, Stockport, Sheffield, Peterborough, Cambridge, Rugby are some very good beer-town highlights and I was again taken with the latter's Seven Stars, great range of beers, ever-present Tiger for my bb pal, friendly service and camra discount. Not saying it would necessarily be my winner, but it's up there...
