Ye Old Blue Bell, Hull

Sam smiths is great once you get into it. The pub is quite "locally" but accessible enough. Pool table upstairs and is a pretty unspoilt place.

Ye Olde White Harte, Hull

A dependable drinking pub, excellent beers, and a warm welcome. The beers do not change very regularly, and it could benefit from a guest ale. However, it is a very interesting place, and the hosts are very friendly. Recommended.

The Wellington Inn, Hull

Have lived in Hull for years, but only just discovered this gem ! I'm depressed it's taken me this long to find it! Superb range of beers. If I didn't love real ale so much, I would be able to spend a very long time, (and a lot of money) enjoying the huge range of continental lagers in the giant walk in fridge, visible from the bar. And not forgetting Bernard, my favourite Czech beer from a visit to Prague, and now available on draught (for the first time in the UK) from this pub. :-)

But all of this is set aside for the main event of may be 8 hand pulled beers, from cider to mild, porters and light ales. They change after every beer, so if you find oneyou like, you best enjoy it, because it may not be around for long! A tour de force in exploring the heritage of our national drink!

It took a long time to find, but I'll make sure I make up for it in the future!
