Magpie First Gold at the Marquis of Granby, Granby

We arrived at a small village and instantly descended into the one public building available to us; the pub. We didn’t know where exactly we were. Our surroundings were just of houses. There was just one building of interest and we descended into it like crazy. Luckily, the pub was quite quiet, as we soon filled it up and made it busy. The tables in the bar were instantly flooded with people supping halves and enjoying the surroundings; which weren’t particularly inspiring for a group of people who had journeyed all the way from the Midlands. It was lucky that the Marquis himself wasn’t in otherwise we may have disturbed his favourite haunt. The main purpose of our visit was to sample the beer, which was in excellent condition and everyone made an effort to try at least two of the five beers that the pub sold. And once the beer had been served, all you could hear is people discussing and appreciating it; while also talking of where the next venue might be.
