A pub is for life not just for Christmas
I really liked the Drapers Arms London n1. Been here twice and find it a relaxing pub with very good beer.
Can't separate The Inn At Farnborough and The Craven Arms in Birmingham - couldn't be more different, but I really enjoyed my first visit to both.
This should have been a doddle this month but it included a trip to Wolverhampton then Shifnal where the Plough was a superb old place with interesting beers.
The Holden's Codsall Station was a classic and of course the final destination, the Holden's Great Western under Wolverhampton Station is an all time favourite. Add to that the new micropub at Petts Wood the One Inn The Wood gives four potential winners any of which could win it in a different month.
HOWEVER, The Red Lion at Snargate has to be the winner simply because as far as I know there is nothing else quite like it in the South East. Definitely one of my top 10 pubs of all time.
POTM The Red Lion at Snargate
Change of plan, POTM was here The Craft Beer Co Clapham. , but an unexpected optune moment led to a brief visit to The Roebuck on the last day of the month, an excellent pub and has eclipsed my initial choice, this is now my POTM.

Not a great deal to choose from this month. However, Firehouse, Sowerby Bridge was one of those bars where you enter with low expectations and come away pleasantly surprised.
