I have always been fascinated by pubs. As a teenager I even found the aroma of spilt beer and stale smoke that emerged whenever I passed an open door beguiling. I had my very first beer in a pub, a half pint of indifferent keg bitter, but once I got to college, going to the pub became part of my life.
