GP's turn to organise the monthly outing this time and he opted for a walking tour of pubs in or near the Jewerally Quarter.
Along with JF and BJ, I started however at New Street station to organise tickets for the latter's 60th birthday outing up to Yorkshire (which I'll hopefully blog in due course.) We were therefore late starting and so met the others en route to their second venue, Vertu Bar where there was Purity UBU available. The financial committee was hastily formed here to work out the share of the costs of the train tickets that were purchased above but it was a case of bad light stops play.
Next pub was the very traditional Red Lion (note to self, menu looked good) where I chose Wye Valley Betty Bach. The financial committee made progress as well, with the sub-committee that took charge taking his glasses off and scratching his head somewhat.
The Drop Forge next where I went for a lager style beer from Malvern Hills Brewery (Priessnitz Plzen.)
We next called at the Brown Lion, a Two Towers tavern which offers the full range of beers from the Two Towers brewery (as well as something like 10 ciders and perries the night we were there.) I went first for the Mott St Mild and thence a bottle of Boon Framboise (labelled 2009 vintage.)
The Rectory Bar next and time for the second Purity beer of the evening - Mad Goose.
Queens Arms next, and a pattern is starting to appear as I went for Wye Valley's HPA.
The evening ended at the Shakespheare (the one in Summer Row) where I actually opted for a glass of Talisker Whisky.
