Only visited two Brewdog pubs and didn’t like them at all: cavernous with doomy dark decor and uncomfortable seating, and the beer didn’t appeal either.
Tetley Bitter is now brewed in Burton too, by Marstons I think, and is not the same or as moreish as the lovely liquor brewed at the now-demolished Hunslet brewery in Leeds.
Burton’s particularly hard water is fine for the distinctive beers long made there such as Draught Bass and Marston’s Pedigree but is not suitable for replicating beers once brewed elsewhere.
In former times one of the joys of travelling around the country was the opportunity to sample regional beers sold only locally and I think it a shame that now you can get the likes of Taylor’s Landlord in Cornwall and Doom Bar in Yorkshire.
