We fancied a change from Tamworth this time so its on the bus over to Lichfield. I, however, being earlier popped first into the Silk Kite and opted for Fuller's London Pride.
We alighted from the bus two stops earlier than the station after some debate about the first venue, and in fact ended up in the Greyhound to sample their latest guest, McMullen's Country Bitter whilst watching the early sdtages of Team GB's Men's Football team in their warm up match against Brazil. We declined the chance to take art in the pop quiz but did note the curry menu which may well see me return at some stage.
We then headed up to the Gatehouse for some Wychwood Hobgobblin, and thence round the corner to the Queen's Head where we eyed the Cocky Blonde, a strawberry beer from Jennings that we weren't too keen on but couldn't decide if it was either on of off due to the fruit flavour.
Onward the the Earl of Lichfield, which was again very quiet (7 people including the bar tender.) Marston's Pedigree here.
Time for one more before our return journey so we headed across to the George IV and for a change went for the more expensive Pironi (apologies for choosing that one RG!)
Finally back in Tamworth, the most convenient final port of call for many reasons was the Three Tuns where we both opted for Bass.
