It is always a pleasure to be back in the Wellington on Bennetts Hill in the heart of Birmingham.
An excellent place for a rendezvous with a good selection of beers. Today the choice is London Thunder and Old Smokey.
A bus ride up towards Aston takes us to the magnificent Bartons Arms in Newtown.
A beautiful interior in which to enjoy some Black Sheep Ale.
Next we head towards Digbeth to explore a series of establishments. The first is The Rainbow.
It is a half of Guinness in here.
Nearby is an Irish pub, The Spotted Dog.
We are pleased to find they have Holden's Black Country Mild and some tasty cobs.
The Old Crown is one of the oldest buildings in Birmingham and is said to date from 1368.
A half of Guinness is perched precariously on the side of a well.
The Chance & Counters, a board game cafe, is a revisit within the surroundings of the Custard Factory.
A good place to enjoy some Devon Red Cider outside in the sunshine.
Birdies Bar is an unexpected stop.
The cider theme continues with Sharp's Cold River.
Even more unexpected is a visit to Roxy Lanes ten pin bowling alley.
Some Somersby Cider probably helps with the attempt at bowling.
The name of the last pub is The Ruin.
And some Orchard Pig Cider to finish.
