Sister bar to Cask Liverpool Road that opened in late November 2018. Situated by the canal in New Islington in the ground floor of a newly built block, there are 6 handpulls around to the left of the bar though no more than 4 will serve cask ale (lewer in the summer), in the summer one may be use for a second cider. One real cider by handpump on the main bar and 20 keg lines.

The keg lines often feature many German lagers and local keg beers. The layout is L-shaped with the bar opposite as you walk in and the handpumps are on the left hand end of the bar near the dartboard. There is a mixture of high table and booth seating.

Was voted 'best newcomer' by the local branch in 2019 and branch Pub of the Year in 2021.
