letter to the editor…

I’m a great believer in giving credit where credit is due, so I would like to give some to the Robin Hood in Millhouses. A pub that has always served cask ales – up to half a dozen – following a recent (relatively minor) refurbishment it  now boasts some 11 hand pumps. As of 21/08/14 it has on -or due – some nine cask conditioned ales, as follows:- Brakspears, Wadsworth 6X, Tetleys,Pedigree,Black Sheep, Landlord, Bass,Moonshine, and London Pride. Cider drinkers are also catered for.  Also worthy of note is the fact that it gives a 20p a pint off for CAMRA members. On this latter point, I believe that some other local CAMRA groups print a list of pubs giving such discounts in their districts – perhaps we in Sheffield should follow their lead. Tony Bateman
