Society, Birmingham

Ambitious new hall, set under an uninspiring office block, with five street-food outlets and a more-interesting-than-you-might-expect bar. The tables are functional and the overall look industrial canteen-style, but even on an otherwise quiet Monday evening, there was more going on than I expected. Better still, there were four cask ales on tap: Vocation's Bread & Butter, Run Hop Run from Rigg & Furrow, Full Circle Stout and Attic's Quarter amber (£5.50). Furthermore, up to 26 craft keg beers in a wide range of styles are available on the counter and bar-back keg taps.

Large food hall and bar. 4 street food vendors and a massive bar. Plenty large bench style seats. The beer choice is impressive - 4 cask ales when I called - Vocation Bread & Butter, Pomona Island The Chickens I Don't Like, Left Handed Giant Catch Me Pale & Dark Mild. I went for the mild which was excellent. The craft choice is extensive and has something for all tastes with over 30 craft keg lines to choose from. I liked it here and will spend longer next time. Well worth a visit.
