Winter Pub AwardSouth Cheshire CAMRA’s award of Winter Pub of 2016 was shared this year when theBlack Bear, Sandbach (see page 34) and the Vine, Nantwich tied after all voted were cast.The award to the Vine was held in February,and it was encouraging to see the pub packedmid-week. The televised football probably drewin a few extra people, but lots present werejust enjoying a night out at this vibrant pub.It is owned by Hydes brewery of Manchester,and was refurbished last year. This was a subtleupdating of the pub, replacing dark wood andwalls with a lighter colour scheme and anattractive stone floor.Enthusiastic new landlord Dan Strong hasexpanded the lunchtime food menu, put extrabeers on, and the brightened up pub nowattracts a larger regular crowd throughout theevening.Up to six beers are normally available, and onthe award evening Hyde’s Original and Old Indiewere accompanied by the rugby-themedEverards Tight Head and Bateman’s Hooker,plus Beer Studio Styrian Aurora and WoodwardBalderdash.The last two are part of the expanding Hyde’sportfolio and all beers we had were on good form,fitting for a winter pub winner.

Winter Pub of the Season - Mount Inn, BoughtonThe Chester & SouthClwyd CAMRA branchPub of the Season forWinter 2015/16 is theMount Inn in Boughtonon the outskirts ofChester City centre.This award is primarilydesigned to recogniselesser-lauded placesthat nevertheless stillmake a trip to the pubsuch an absolutepleasure. The Mount fitsthe criteria perfectlyhaving had a new lease of life under theownership of HydesBrewery.An attractive, terraced community-focused local tucked away just off the busy ChristletonRoad, it is split into what loosely equates to a bar (popular with sports fans) and acomfortable lounge area with bookshelves.There’s a games room at the rear while the outdoor patio has glorious sweeping viewsacross a bend in the river Dee to Chester Meadows - a fabulous place in warmer months tosup the pub’s Cask Marque rated beers.Well done to all the staff. A presentation will take place shortly.

Chester Round-UpThere was bad start to the New Year when we learned that the Compass on City Road inChester had ceased trading. No other details to add other than their final poignant commenton social media "And that's it. Thanks for the support over the years. Much love xxx". Shame.A very likeable venue. Previous incarnations at this site have been Jones's, Last Orders andChester Hangman. What next?Chester & South Clwyd CAMRA have made a formalapplication for the iconic and eccentric Albion (pictured)to be the first Chester city centre pub to be listed as anAsset of Community Value. We recognise the uniqueplace the much-loved Albion, with its fascinating GreatWar decor, has in the fabric of city life and we are surethe council will recognise this as a valuable communityasset to be treasured.Here’s a fabulous announcement from Kash’s Facebook account.
“Today marks an historic day in the history of the Kash Tap Rooms. We are officially throwingour loving arms around CAMRA. Yes, we've stolen glances across the dance floor, but nowit's time to exchange 'phone numbers. Starting this weekend [29th January], we'll be offeringa 10% discount on all cask ales, 24/7. And, as an additional sweetener, we're addinganother two pumps to the bar. So not only will we have six glorious pumps of pleasure,there'll be a lot more guest beer action, too. “
This innovative, Bohemian bar with colourful murals - an early pioneer of the craft beermovement - is, of course, home to Redball brewery whose beers can also be had atdiscounted prices from 4-7pm every day. As for that “guest beer action” mentioned earlier,here’s a few brewers whose wares have been sampled ... Hardknott, Heavy Industry,Almasty, Thornbridge, Salopian, Anarchy, Cheshire Brew Brothers, Offbeat, Milk Street,Deva Craft. And if that’s still not enough to get you beating on their door, Kash will also behosting a Forgotten Heroes beer festival from March 25 to 27 including ales “forgotten in therush to try newer, shinier and hipper breweries”.

More generous CAMRA member discounts to report with 10% off at Telford’s Warehouseon Mondays and 15% off at another canal side bar - Artichoke - on Tuesday evenings.The latter is an atmospheric relaxing bistro bar with attentive staff which, besides servinggins, cocktails and sundry continental lagers, serves Cheshire area ales on its four handpumps e.g. Merlin, Cheshire Brewhouse, Deva Craft, Mobberley, Tatton. Definitely not oneto be overlooked when visiting near popular neighbours Old Harkers Arms and the Cellar(with more member discounts here!).We’ve often debated where Chester’s first micropub might spring up. Hoole perhaps ormaybe somewhere on cosmopolitan Brook Street? But no, the answer is a former domesticappliance repair shop in the Garden Quarter between the Bouverie and Chichester Arms. Itwill be called the Goat & Munch and the plan is to have four cask + four craft lagers/ales,one stout and one cider on draft sourced principally from local/north west area. Keep up todate on progress via their twitter (@goatnmunch) and facebook (Goat-and-Munch) accounts.Wetherspoons is looking to dispose of one of its pubs in Chester. The Forest House isamong 34 of their outlets nationwide that have been put on the market. Apparently it’s notpart of a fire sale but the result of a “periodic review of the portfolio” which revealed those
“selling average 20 to 30 per cent less sales than other Wetherspoon pubs.”It possibly also makes sense if the company are to proceed with their plans to convert thecurrently boarded up Bull & Stirrup on Northgate Street into one of their Wetherlodges.The Forest House was originally a grand Georgian town residency which later became asuccession of pretty seedy nightclubs. Lees Brewery then came along and did a finerestoration job on the building when it re-opened with much fanfare as the Mansion House.This was subsequently sold on to Wetherspoons and re-named. What future awaits?Alexander’s in Rufus Court off the top end of Northgate Street has re-opened afterrefurbishment and with a change of owner. Three real ales feature at the bar - typicallyButcombe Bitter, Lees MPA and Weetwood Cheshire Cat.The Chester Charity Beer Festival at Chester Rugby Club takes place on Thursday 12th -Saturday 14th May. The festival now spans 28 years and has raised a fantastic £220,000 forlocal charities.

Ripping the Heart Out of the CommunityThe Cruella de Vil sponsored “Jackanapes of Out Inn Cheshire” for this edition must surelybe awarded to Chester-based Admiral Taverns. The PubCo has as a website masthead
“Real Community Commitment” and yet they are, with their closure of the Centurion inVicar’s Cross and stubborn determination to demolish it for an unwanted care home,currently exhibiting a greater commitment to defecating on their own doorstep.They flimsily contest that the pub - the only one easily accessible to a whole swathe ofhousing estate - is not sustainable. Local residents, who have set up a CenturionCommunity Action Group (CCAG), are seething accusing ‘Badmiral’ of premeditatedasset stripping, cynically putting corporate greed ahead of community well-being andvindictively manipulating closure. CCAG and CAMRA argue the only thing not viable isthe company business model.Here’s a short timeline of the facts ofhow we got where we are today(Feb 5th).· Summer 2014, Licensee took outthree year lease renewal showingobvious confidence in the viabilityof the pub.· September 2014, Admiral buy thepub from Star Pubs and Bars.Admiral claim on their website to be“one of the UK's leading communitypub companies” so the pub will besafe in their hands right?· November 2014 (just 2 months after buying the pub) Admiral exchange contracts withdevelopment company LNT subject to gaining planning permission to demolish the pubfor alternative use. It’s almost like they had no intention of running it but just wanted it for adevelopment opportunity!· January 2015, LNT submit the planning application to demolish the pub and redevelopthe site.· January 2015, the CCAG raise an application to have the Centurion listed as an Assetof Community Value (ACV). This was granted by the council in February. Admiral Tavernshired legal representation to appeal the decision to grant an ACV. Not the act of a “leadingcommunity pub company”. This appeal was quite rightly rejected.What was their motive for appealing against the wishes of the locals and parish council etc?· June 2015, the planning application was refused.· August 2015, with the threat of losing his livelihood the landlord gave notice in order totake up a more secure role elsewhere. Admiral spun this as the pub not being viablerather than them trying to demolish his place of work.· November 2015, Willow Park is brought in to manage the pub. They report great tradingover Christmas and New Year and are happy to continue managing the pub.· November 2015, LNT put in a slightly modified planning application for the site. Still eagerto demolish this Community Asset.· 18th January 2016, Admiral announce the closure of the pub as being “unviable” due tothe management company cancelling the contract. Willow Park then announce details ofhow Admiral changed the terms of their financial agreement which in effect forced them toend the arrangement.
42
· 21st January 2016, LNT Construction appeal the refusal of the 1st planning applicationto the Secretary of State, before the 2nd planning application has even been decided.A cynic would suggest this is a clear attempt to put pressure on the council when theycome to make the planning decision.
· 25th January 2016, The Centurion is wall-to-wall with regulars having farewell drinks andexchanging fond memories. Last bell is rung and executioner Admiral close and thus leavethe whole of Vicar’s Cross without a single pub.So there you have it. Admiral spin the story as the pub not being workable and needs toclose. Admiral own the pub. Admiral charge the rent and set the terms for lease agreements.The Centurion is the only pub in a very large estate. If they say it’s not viable then they’reeither making a huge mess of things or deliberating running it down so they can get thelucrative development through. Maybe having a closed pub helps them in this aim but theyare certainly going against all local wishes by getting rid of a much-loved local.No doubt, since copy deadline, events will have moved on. This is without question aviable community asset and could thrive under new creative ownership.How will matters pan out? Will Admiral shrug off the ill-will and put profit before community?Do bears poop in the woods?
Over the Border: I Do Like a Drink Around the DeesideA cold winter cycle round some pubs in Deesidestarted with the Running Hare in Ewloe. This arelatively new-build Marston’s pub situated onSt David’s Park close to the busy A494. As you’dexpect of this style it is very large and mostly laidout for diners, with a carvery section to one side.There are three hand pumps for drinkers and on thisvisit there was Marston’s Pedigree, WychwoodHobgoblin and Jennings Cockle Warmer (allMarston’s beers of course). The latter two were verynice so it was well worth popping in to warm up.A quick detour next to say a final goodbye to theBoar’s Head as we discovered planning permission was finally granted to demolish the pubthat has stood there since 1704. Sigh.Onwards to another Marston’s house but the Plough in Queensferry is markedly differentfrom the Running Hare. It is a more established pub and immediately felt to be a nicecommunity local. The building is split in two parts – the back bar has a pool table and TVwhile the main room has nice seating areas and a pleasing wood-panelled bar with woodenflooring. Just the one hand pump on but no problems at all with the Bank’s Bitter.Whizzing through Connah’s Quay it was a short climb then a long descent to the Sir Gawainand the Green Knight. Just Sam Smith’s Old Brewery Bitter the choice but very enjoyablewhen sat next to a superb roaring fire. The pub has retained its old world charm withexposed brick walls and wooden fittings. A pleasant place to drink.Onto the main road and the Halfway House where the beers were Black Sheep Bitterand Greene King IPA. Good to see the landlord pulling some through first before serving.Apparently cask is mostly drunk in the evenings round these parts! Spotted on the menuthat Wednesday is curry and a pint night; one to note for future reference.Last stop a little further down the road was the Ship Inn. This very friendly no-frills pub isa little too unashamedly down-to-earth for some but I’m won over by its simple charms.Certainly nothing wrong with very good beers; Facers Abbey Red and StonehouseCambrian Gold. Dee Cider is also available on hand pump for the cider lovers. (Mr W)

Southwest Cheshire Pubs SocialWith the opportunity to visit a quartet ofrelatively inaccessible rural pubs, littlewonder that it was a full minibus that set offfrom Chester for a bibulous evening’sentertainment.First stop was the White Horse in GreatBarrow.This village local will be celebrating its secondanniversary under new ownership in March.And now that it’s freed from the deadeninggrasp of the PubCo, there’s no danger of itheading to the glue factory as it’s positivelyrunning around the paddock like a frisky colt! Warm and cosy with a revitalised communityatmosphere, it was serving a changing range of guest beers which tonight included Big HandBastion, Purple Moose Resolution and Weetwood Cheshire Cat.Only tried the first two - both excellent!Sadly no time to linger so off to the Shady Oak at Tiverton.A first time visit for me to this snug, isolated canalside publying in the (moon) shadow of Beeston Castle. Just JenningsCumberland Ale on but, in the summer months with increasedboat trade, three beers are typically available.The pub was very quiet when we arrived with just one coupleeating in the bar area so our party soon livened things up! Wemust visit again, maybe for our midsummer Pub Gardens trip.
Next stopwas thePheasant at Higher Burwardsley, anoutstanding gastropub with stunningcountryside views replaced on this darkeveningby an opportunity for star-gazing.Lots of diners in here, all appreciatingthe warmth and glow of the real fire.Beers were from the Weetwood rangewith the Eastgate scoring better thanthe Old Dog in my book.
Finally on to Broxton to visit anothersplendid freehouse - the Sandstone Inn.Again quite lively and even more so oncewe’d all settled down around the bar area.Beers this time included Sandstone Edge,Stonehouse Station Bitter and AllgatesBlue Sky Tea with the latter beingparticularly well received.Many thanks to Social Sec John Bowyerfor arranging the trip. They’re heartilyrecommended. See website etc forforthcoming recces! Reg Cobham

Out of TownThe Pheasant at Higher Burwardsley wasrunner-up in the BBC Countryfile MagazineAwards 2015/16: Pub of the Year.We quote “This peaceful pub in thePeckforton Hills enjoys magnificentpanoramas across the plains and is arambler’s paradise.Attractive old tables and chairs squatunder heavy beams, while a huge fireplace,great food and drink [typically 3 Weetwoodales plus guest] and comfortable roomsensure all post-walk needs are met.”It came second only to the Applecross Inn in Wester Ross - high high high up on the westScottish coast and a pub this correspondent has often fantasised about visiting!Spitting Feathers have announced the dates for their popular Saturday afternoon BrewbarnSessions at their Waverton brewery. These are 19th March, 23rd April, 21st May, 25th June,10th Sept, 8th Oct and 19th Nov and include a brewery tour, food from the farm, live musicand lots of beer. They start at 2.00 pm and finish around 6.00 pm. It’s £20 ticket entry only(they DO sell out) and this covers everything - you don’t need money on the day!Tickets from the Brewery Tap or on-line via social media. In the midst of all this they will alsobe hosting their annual beer festival on July 16th.
The Bird in Hand at Guilden Sutton hasreopened again after a short closure for a minorrefit and change of licensee. The new manageris part of the owner’s family and, whilst new tothe trade, is learning fast about both the fun andthe hard work involved in running a pub. Thisfriendly little local tucked away at the end of aquiet road remains a free house, offering a choiceof three ales often from micros such as Peerlessand Brimstage. Food will available again soononce the kitchen and staff are fully in place.We wish Will and his team every success.
Refurbishment work is finally under way at the Carden Arms in Tilston which, we’re assured,will result in the reinstatement of this traditional village pub. If everything goes to plan,villagers are hoping to see their lovely cobble fronted local re-open in the spring.The White Horse at Great Barrow is to host a mini-beer festivalfrom Friday 29 April to Sunday 1 May. This is just one of manyevents taking place at this village local which recently celebratedthe second anniversary of its new lease of life as a free house.Keep an eye out for live music, two-for-one pizza offers, fish andchip Fridays and quiz nights. As for the ale you’ll often find locallysourced changing guest beers such as Big Hand and Weetwoodthough Purple Moose is partial to an appearance.Meanwhile, approximately ten miles south-south, we arrive atanother blanched equine that recently enjoyed a red letter day-the White Horse at Churton. Congratulations to Ash & Beccawho celebrated their first Pub-iversary in the New Year.Well worth calling in with its cosy front bar and real fire.Big Hand beers are also a regular feature.
