Pub Of The Month - April 2016
A pub is for life not just for Christmas
Laurieston Bar, Tradeston
Although I had heard good reports over the years, my first visit to the Laurieston Bar proved the most pleasant of surprises (all in a rather unlikely location on the south bank of the Clyde in Glasgow).
Black Dog, Whitstable. A very fleeting visit early in the month afforded my first experience of an East Kent Micro, and one of the few beers in the running for beer of the year. (Kent Brewery-Session Pale.). Never to be one to name drop, but Stonch was in there only a matter of three days later...

The Fox
An excellent shop conversion with outstanding ale quality and selection,it was the best of a decent group of pubs in Shipley.

"Good people drink good beer" Hunter S Thompson
A clear winner for me is the Albion in Conwy a superb place for locals and visitors alike. The bad news is that I found out about their sister pub the Bridge too late to visit it. The good news is that it gives me an excuse to go back!
The Platform Tavern One of few high points in Southampton.

for saving (along with the 'spoons!) what could have been a very mediocre evenings drinking in a very mediocre town.
