I'm getting tired now. And I fear this is going to underwhelm. So I'd better tell.

It's a real ale pub for young and trendy people, that's what it suddenly is.

beers from micro breweries all over the place, American and stuff as well as British. But not a beard or a pork scratching in sight. All the (other) punters in their early 20s with silly hair.

Apart from one old Irish bloke who was a remnant of the old place, who stumbled over to me and asked how he could just get a normal pint of lager.

I told him to go to another pub.
