Bus Pass Bandit: Part Twenty Six - DIGBETH

Further sampling from the Second City is on the agenda as the Bus Pass Bandit braves Birmingham once more...

The Bandit arrives at Moor Street Station in Birmingham all set for a Digbeth challenge.

But first a rendezvous and a visit to the ever popular Wellington on Bennetts Hill.

Gorlovka Imperial Stout at 6% seems like a good choice - a strong start in more ways than one!

Is the Birmingham Bull about to charge?

The first pub in Digbeth is the Anchor, an Irish pub and another old favourite.

It is always a pleasure to find Titanic Plum Porter.

Next on to the Fountain Inn which has been renovated to a high standard.

A Guinness and a cheese cob will do nicely.

And then an unexpected encounter with the Chance & Counters, a board game cafe based within the famous Custard Factory.

New Invention's Blueberry and Vanilla Milkshake is an interesting colour!

Nearby, Nortons is a very spacious Irish bar and music venue.

It simply has to be a Guinness in here.

Leaving Digbeth, a descent into the subterranean Bacchus Bar in Burlington Arcade is always full of surprises...

Although the headless Knight makes no comment!

A closing half of Adnams Ghost Ship seems to add to the surreal atmosphere.
