They have a good selection of local beers, a huge choice of UK brews and a decent amount of German and Belgian stuff, plus other beers from around the world. The only problem is sorting the wheat from the chaff - with upwards of 500 - or more, who's counting? - bottles in stock, it can take a while to browse. Prices are arguably a little on the high side, but comparable to Wine Rack, and broadly in line with places like Cobbett's or The Grumpy Goat.

Then about 3 years back, I popped in for a bottle of single malt and noticed the likes of Brewdog, Beavertown, Flying Dog and more surprisingly, Left Hand on the shelves, which was a nice change up.<br /><br />Now they're going full-on craft with the likes of To Ol, Gigantic, Northern Monk, Wylam, Evil Twin, Odyssey, Electric Bear, Weird Beard, Arbor and Buxton, to name but a few seen there recently - and not just the low-hanging fruit either, but some of the more unusual offerings from those breweries. <br /><br />Was chatting to the manager a couple of weeks ago and she said that they're looking to bring new lines in every few weeks. I hope it continues. It certainly saves time travelling to one of those hipster shops in London for different beer...Bobby Mangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05457608247533918869noreply@blogger.com
