The new format's been on the go for a while. Simon Jenkins reviewed it for the Evening Post, back in April. A case of loving the beers, but not sure about the interior. It's been on my hit list since then, but I don't get over to north Leeds much these days.Originally Posted by oldboots

"adjust the 'hoppiness' of each pint on"

These things have been in use for a lot of years mostly In America where they are called Randles.THE Crown and Anchor Brixton and the Bohemia Finchley have hopinators and are regularly used.The Euston tap had one on one night when I was there and they dry hopped Jaipur .How daft is that.
The 2 London pubs with them tend to use fruit and things as hops don't really don't change the flavour with a few minutes in contact with the beer. You can chuck anything in but recently I saw on twitter one of them had an amber beer with chocolate Diam bars added.Craft beer maybe.
So the brewery produces an ale how he wants you to experience it, and the publican can muck about with it. Reading the article, I hope they only muck about with your pint if you request it, rather than all beer serves, but it sounds like Euston Tap was serving the Jaipur dry hopped. Not on in my opinion.
Alcohol doesn't solve problems .... but then again, neither does milk.

Mixed feeling on this one, baby out with bath water, be careful what you wish for?
I have no idea, but as I mentioned earlier Fullers have started to respond to the Wetherspoons pricing, at least two pubs here, in real south, along A3 have now got pints at £2 during daytime, perhaps the freedom to not be tied will help, time will tell I guess
I drink to make others more interesting
