I've decided to set up a one stop shop twitter feed for all the York pub news you'll ever need. While Within the Walls focuses on bigger events, reviews and pub news I have noticed a lot of other pub info being shared that I felt could be compressed into a concise feed but was too much to include on Within the Walls.

Using an automated program all the pub's twitter accounts need to do is use the hashtags #YorkBeer, #OTB or #YorkPubs and their messages will be automatically retweeted. So I won't really be monitoring the account too much as I see most things on Within the Walls. This is basically for everyone to use to promote events, quizzes, offers, food and what beers they have On The Bar, that kind of thing. Only those being followed will be retweeted though. Followers can get an RT by using #YorkBeer only.

So please spread the word about #YorkBeer and we can all help keep the City well informed.

Review - The Blue Bell

New review online, here’s the summery:

Hidden away behind a very non-assuming façade, just like the flower of the same name, is the very quaint and very small Blue Bell. A traditional little pub with a friendly following of locals that are very chatty and welcoming, although not if you order a standard lager like our mate Dave did, he got a bit of stick for that, which we found quite amusing. If there’s a sign on the door saying private party take no heed as this is a technique to avoid large groups or simply people who aren’t in the know from entering. Although it also has to do with the sheer lack of space in this tiny two room pub. The main bar is crammed with all kinds of brewery paraphernalia and an open fire, which lends to an intimate cosy atmosphere. They have a good selection of ales at average prices and have previously won many awards, unfortunately the size of the venue leads to quite a few low scores knocking down their overall results. It’s really a drinking locals pub, good place for a couple to have a nice quiet drink, but not really for anything else and definitely not large groups; a little gem in the right situation.

For further details and full scores see the main page.

Our Within the Walls Map has now been amended, couple of errors and name changes now fixed. As usual if you think we've missed anything or made any other errors please tweet @WithintheWalls_

Our Interactive Google Map is still live and kicking and the most up to date thing you'll find, as we use it to plan our reviewing, etc... As we like to keep things current a new colour pin (Red) has been added to show venues we plan to revisit due to a refurbishment or the suchlike. While there's beer in the pubs we will strive to keep all our reviews up to date! No stagnating website here! lol.
