Manchester september 2011

So I've been sat on this post for about 2 weeks now after visiting my sister Ella in Manchester. She moved there beginning-ish of september and I said I would go visit and even though she's not really into ale much (she has tried on several occasions to get involved on this family tradition) she had scoped out one or two pubs but with time frame and pizza express offers calling we only had chance to nip into one tucked away pub.

Called The Salibury which had 5 pumps on that day, we decided to try The Blonde Witch which was out of character for me because it was so blight but the peachy undertones and I got for Ella an Autumn Red which was a bit more amber in colour with a slightly smokey aftertaste.

There was quite a strange atmosphere with a heavy metal music soundtrack to knock your socks off on a Wednesday afternoon, with token red pattered carpet and wood everywhere we left quite quickly after that because I prefer somewhere to enjoy my ale a bit more peacefully on an afternoon!

I saw a few more pubs on my travels that I will frequenting with what I like to refer to as soul in Manchester....we still have 3 years to go Ella!
