A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Sometimes you get caught up trying to tick off pubs in far flung places and forget what's on your doorstep.I'm being greedy and picking two pubs Kenilworth and Berts Bar

My pub of the month goes to The Marquis Of Granby this is a really nice victorian pub that is in the heart of the Penkhull area of Stoke on Trent,i could have happily stayed in this pub for a good while.

Another month of not getting out and about,my POTM is a repeat of last month, The Nags Head , an excellent range of ales an hours bus ride from my doorstep.

The Red Lion Inn One of those pubs that you just don't want to leave, great service and food - ales were also outstanding. Only wish it was my local![]()
On a brief stop-off in Berwick on my way to Edinburgh, sought out the Barrels Ale House and very glad I did - absolutely the right place to get some decent beer in a friendly atmosphere on a cold winter's day.
My visit to the Cock Tavern,Mare Street was brief and I would like to go back for a longer session to sample more of their beers so maybe a future POTM.For January I will nominate The Farmers Bar at the Kings Head in Aylesbury as the winner;historic ,quirky,welcoming,and the Chiltern Brewery Tap, a very good combination.

My best pub this month was the brewery tap of the Grafton Brewery in Worksop, The Grafton Hotel, where I spent an excellent if somewhat liquified Saturday afternoon.
Tell us, now, how and when
We may find the bravest men?
A sure test, an easy test:
Those that drink beer are the best
Another Aylesbury nomination, The Hop Pole Inn. Owned by Vale Brewery and home to The Aylesbury Brewhouse, you're guaranteed some interesting ales here and ukelele night if you're lucky.
