I know all about decent pubs
I haven't been to one of those hooting fuck fests for 14 months, however, because I work with zombehs, and I want to show my face tonight, I will have to run the gauntlet.

Used to go to a cracking microbrewery pub that sold all my favourite bottled beers, including the towering Trappist Rochefort 12 (11.3%) and they also had Liefmans Kriek on draught, which was frankly amazing!

You'd LOVE my local
They are Belgian beer specialists and they have fucking hundreds of 'em.

Looks brilliant
I particularly like the sound of the back bar that is "darker and more sombre with a European beer cellar feel to it". Sounds good. Although, I would be too tempted to put all the lovely glasses into my bag, as 'souveniers'.

There are some mental glasses
There's one that looks like a test tube and comes with its own wooden stand - rather too 'look at me, I'm a beer specialist' for my liking though. I do have two pilfered Delerium Tremens glasses which I use for cognac...

Yeah, those Kwak ones are well OTT, never tried it.
I had a few Tremens glasses as well, lovely beer, very creamy. Ended up breaking them though, mainly because i'm a drunken buffoon. On one particularly eventful afternoon, i walked out of a pub with 6, yes 6, Leffe glasses. I use them for wine, and they are simply perfect.

Fuck, i'm choking for a beer now.

I've decided I'm going t'pub at dinner time
Get a head start, only a Wetherspoons mind you, so Erdinger or Leffe would be my best choice. However, they do have a new wheat beer, hilariously called Tucher. probably pronounced 'Tooshare', but i'm opting for 'Toucher'

when you've ordered it, leer at the barman
and ask if they have a kids' area.
