In Birmingham for a course today (Open Educational Resources if you’re interested) which was taking place at The Studio in Cannon Street. I’d already decided to visit a couple of pubs in the evening as well as the German Market, and on arriving at venue noted a new pub, The Windsor opposite so decided to start there after completing the day’s business.
The Windsor is one of those copycat Wetherspoon type venues, with picture of food, etc. The only thing to distinguish it however was the fact that the menu’s daily specials (complete with a free pint of whatever) were in a somewhat different order, with Tuesday being Curry night, Wednesday , Grill Night and Thursday Pie night. A couple of real ales were available and I chose M&B Mild, a once common beer which I’m not seeing that much these days it appears.
Next pub was the Brier Rose, a genuine Wetherspoon for the excellent 6% Wadworth Pixley Black Current Stout.
Final pub of the evening was Baccus Bar and Brew Dog Punk IPA.
