Titanic Plum Porter at the Dispensary, Liverpool

This is one of the smallest pubs in Liverpool, and it’s also one of the earliest that I remember visiting on a previous journey where the pub concentrated heavily on beers from Derbyshire and I drank Dr. Morton’s Snake Oil. On this visit, the rugby was being shown on a small screen mounted in a corner of a pub, but I managed to join a small group of friends who had managed to commandeer some seats. The reason why they were rooted to their seats was because they were major fans of a plum porter beer from a West Midlands Brewery. This beer is very sweet and moreish; but it’s a bit too sickly to drink more than one pint. I thought it was great to see a local beer entrenched this far north. This pub also has an excellent room for people-watching. The pub is decorated with wood panelling throughout with a Victorian-styled bar and ornate mirrors.
