Not sure about the availability of dark mild in its pubs though, unlike in Salford where it's available in either cask or keg form in the many Holt's tied houses and is also now being brewed there, at Hydes new brewery in Salford Quays.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09310220100267028274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-16357154774294778252015-10-02T12:14:20.204-07:002015-10-02T12:14:20.204-07:00Matt,

One of the things he immediately complains about is how weak the beer is compared to the Younger's and Stone's Special he's used to drinking.
