That really does depend on the Wetherspoons. A few nights ago in the
Tivoli in Cambridge we had a number of perfectly good pints of Hook
Norton Double Stout...

Some just have four light hoppy bitters in mediocre condition (and one
of them from stinking Greene King); some don't. I think the local
management or cellarmen have some freedom to be good or bad.

The one near Leicester Square is huge, mind...

I remember when it was the Marquee. Saw the Inkies there. Happy days.
