Whoever decided to turn it into an It's a Scream should have. alchresearch 08-05-2003, 20:55 I used to like the Fox and Duck just down the road until they gutted that too. richard 08-05-2003, 21:07 The southsea was the first pub in sheffield I went to outside the students unioin. The fox and duck is just too busy. max 09-05-2003, 07:55 When I first came to Sheffield the Nottingham House was a tiny corner pub with only room for about 20 people comfortably. They didn't even have a spirits licence. O'Neills used to be The York, the Fox and Duck was half the size it is now and there was a fish tank in The Southsea. Oh god, we're back to fish again. halevan 10-05-2003, 08:27 We had a lovely holiday in Southsea near portsmouth, nice beach and you can get giant ice cream cornets that melt before you can eat them.

What are porters? muddycoffee 03-01-2006, 15:46 Originally posted by Pook speaking about pubs, i've noticed above the dorr of one on queens road, and in the strines that the licensee has a licence for; "Beers, ales, wines, spirits and porters". What are porters? Basically Guiness is a type of porter. It's an older word for stout. In the old days all the breweries had their own porter, as well as bitter, mild etc..

In the old days all the breweries had their own porter, as well as bitter, mild etc.. Not strictly true. There is some more information on the two styles here (http://www.camra.org.uk/SHWebClass.asp?WCI=ShowCat&CatId=298). Stouts should get their bitterness and darkness through the use of roasted malt and barley, whereas Porters should be more obviously hopped with their darkness coming from black malt. Places like the Kelham Island Tavern and Cask & Cutler will regularly have a stout or porter (sometimes both) available. Anyway sorry to bore you, this is going off topic. :) nick2 03-01-2006, 16:10 The Southsea did have a treacherous piece of lino infront of the bar though, we spent many a night watching people fall flat on their backs. |
