The Wellington, Birmingham

Another quality night over the weekend. This place is quickly becoming my favourite place in town.

I came to the anchor on the reviews from this site and have to say I was a little disappointed. The first two beers I tried were both cloudy and I had a little trouble with the barman to replace them.

However the third pint I chose was spot on and top grade so maybe I just caught the place on an off day.

I will pop back I'm sure when I can and see if I have a better experience.

The Wellington, Birmingham

I visited the Wellington for the first time in almost a year last week and can honestly say how impressed I was with the place.

I hadn't read any of the reviews here prior to my visit and I'm glad I hadn't because in my eyes they are completely uncalled for. The range of beers on offer was as impressive as I remembered it to be and although I only popped in for a couple to see how the place had changed since my last visit, I ended up spending the best part of 5 hours sampling the wonderful beers available (much to the disappointment of the wife).

Purity Mad Goose easily topping my list- I would recommend this beautiful pint to anyone.

As for reviews of a bad spell I found no such evidence of this, although the toilet floor was a little wet, with what i very much doubt was water.

The only small complaint with my evening was with a certain barmaid who's main priority seemed to be spending as much time as possible on the end of the bar talking as load as possible and very little time actually serving the people waiting.

All in all a wonderful evening and I look forward to the next one. Keep up the good work!
