| The Windsor Castle serves the full range of Sadlers beers, and the beer quality is always spot on. There is rarely a guest beer on these days, but there is enough variation here for most, with the Mellow Yellow and the Mud City Stout standing out as classic brews. The pub can get very busy at weekends with the majority of the seating reserved for diners. Fantastic beer and next to the Lye's Balti houses, parking can be tricky (beware of clampers) but well close to Lye train station. Overall a great pub Andythebaggie - 3 Dec 2009 08:29 |
| Nice pub, liked the Mud City Stout. Gets very busy and there is very little seating for those who are not eating SGA - 1 Nov 2009 14:30 |
| What an excellent place, the second pub we visited on our Lye crawl, to which we returned before catching the train. I have no need to describe the extrior, as you can see the pictures, though there is a beer patio/garden area. The inside is a strange mish-mash of old and new, that actually works. Sofas, barrels used as tables, tables usued as tables, chairs, stools, plain walls with olive green touches, different memorabilia here and there. The clientele were mixed and friendly, as were the bar staff. Beer wise, its nice to see the usually dominant kind of fizz drinks shunted up the bar to make way for a central bank of handpulls, standing like troops awaiting a battle. A battle it was, as you were at war with yourself over which one to try next. Across the range, roughly from left to right; Jack's Ale, Mild, Greenman (lager), Worcester Sorcerer, Hop Monster, Thin Ice Stumbling Badger, Kinver Drop, Mellow Yellow and Mud City Stout I tried halfs of several and sips of others. The MILD was better later on the evening visit, the stout excellent. The others were all good solid beers. Along with the Shovel, the two best places in Lye (Holly Bush, third). A must visit place.

| What a superb pub, visited after the recent Stourbridge beer festival. A bit of a mixture of old and new, with beer barrels and sofas alongside each other, but what a choice of ales! As featured on Oz and James' Drink For Britain programme recently. A beer festival in one bar. Choice of ales - Jack's Ale, Mild, Greenman, Worcester Sorcerer, Stumbling Badger, Mellow Yellow, Mud City Stout and Randy Otter, all beers of different character and strength according to your taste. The Badger and Sorcerer were particularly excellent.Will be back soon. dableywolf - 6 Jun 2009 21:42 |
