Mid afternoon a few locals enjoying a pint or two, many tacky Christmas paraphernalia adorning walls, tables etc in a scene which could've been plucked from Phoenix Nights!

Evening, down a pint in 3, visit on a truncated Macclesfield crawl due to earlier train delays.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Holt's (see also Joseph Holt) - Bitter4.00ExcellentIn lovely nick. We so often ignore mid-brown bitters from long established family brewers at our peril in a sea of cask citrus lemon juice beers and craft fizz mediocracy

Website.

The pub is found in Macclesfield, Cheshire, SK11 6JW.

Located in Albert Place in the Waters Green vicinity. Right opposite the railway station this large open plan Holt's boozer with friendly family staff is worth a visit for its Holt's beers. 4 handpumps on the bar counter but not always all are in use.

We have visited this pub 14 times, seen 8 different beers and tried 2 of them.
