The Hanbury Turn, Stoke Heath, Bromsgrove

As per BF's review below, but has a patio area and a dart board. Been a few times over the years and always enjoyed it, with good beer quality. Nice Pig on the Wall at last visit.

Traditional Black Country Ales pub with the expected traditional furniture and decor throughout the L-shaped interior. Usual good selection from the row of 12 handpumps, with nine real ales and three draught ciders available on my visit which coincided with a popular Tuesday evening pub quiz, and in the end I settled for the guest Gollop with Zest from Froth Blowers (£4.00).

Good Beer Guide 2023 and has had the BCA Makeover. Clean, tidy and classically pubby. Several buildings/extensions knocked into one long run through. Bottom area has bench seating, dart board. Central area narrower with the bar. Outside terrace. Classic BCA with around 7 hand pulls but at least two of them to cider. Screen tells you wants on. Titanic Plum Porter turned down in preference to a Geneva IPA from Printworks. Never heard of them before but a fine beer, well kept. Cobs and massive pork pies available from a chiller cabinet - with a salad bar that would put a Harvester to shame :-)

The Hanbury Turn has been purchased by Black Country Ales and is going to be completely refurbished.
