Off to Oxford at the weekend, any suggestions for places to drink?

We only had a few hours in Oxford but Turf tavern and The Bear inn were lovely little traditional pubs. Don’t think the beer was anything special but still worth a visit

Was it on here somebody mentioned BrewDog we’re pushing their own session stout after the announcement Guinness is the most served in pubs?

It doesn't have its own factory tour. The adverts aren’t black and white. It wasn’t brewed in 1759. But what if it’s better?

Introducing Black Heart, a 4.1% draft stout brewed in and for the 21st Century. Chocolate and extra dark crystal malts give waves of coffee, cocoa and subtle caramel. It’s smooth, it’s creamy, it’s all head and it’s all heart.

You might think you know what stout tastes like, but we’d urge you to give this one a try. Because the best stout you’ve ever had might just be the one you haven’t even tasted yet.

Now pouring in your local BrewDog bar.

Blues had it in.

Oxford's a bit crap for craft beer unfortunately

There is/was a tiny place in the covered market.

St Aldates Tavern have a few choices.

My go to is The White Rabbit, which has Siren Soundwave on tap. Always a bloody good pint.

Other than that... Cowley Road: Brewdog & The Chester Arms

Isis, Dun Cow, Ivy House

Cheers.

Anything available along the seafront?

S43 in the Roker, cask selection in the Harbour View. Or Blues at Whitburn but getting a bit further away with that.

Having a dodge to Belfast later in the year. Looks like a few good craft places have popped up in recent years.

Vaux taproom. Torque bar on Sea Rd.

Edit. Just seen he was asking for Seafront.

BrewDog? They had the other one mentioned in I think.

The coffee place (Fausto?) on the sea front used to have Vaux kegs in, not sure if they still do.

There was no S43 in the Roker when I was in in November.

All a bit weird with s43. They’ve sold brewing kit off but insists they’re still alive on socials. Kegs not available anywhere only cans

They wouldn't get BD in.

Was on keg in the Roker when I was in just after Christmas. Only two offerings mind.

Still do. Had hazy citra and alter ego last week.

Pouring tomorrow. Will pop in for a couple to see what it's about.

Used to have two lines on I think but as Dave said there's summat up with them.

Very surprised to see a couple of pubs I’ve been in have just the standard run of beers on tap and no craft or guest beer at all (tap or bottled).

Where are you? Sunderland?

Used to very prolific new beers every other week. Seems they’re just knocking old stock out. Reckon someone else has bought the name and they’re using other brewers kits until they can get established ?

East Durham

East Durham

I live in Seaham, and there’s absolutely nowt there for a decent pint. Only spoons at a push. Go in at Christmas and that’s about it. Go to Sunderland.

Quite possibly but they need to be open about it. I see their offers and just ignore them as there's no indication anything is fresh.

I asked a lad I know connected with there to let me know when they’re getting rid of near bbe stock. Stouts are fine to sit for a while, I’ll happily pile in & but a load of they’re cheap enough.
