  • Beer Matters This Issue
    Sheffield award winners announced In the announcements of the winners of two pub competitions recently it has been reconfirmed that there are good things going on with pubs in Sheffield. The first was the National Pub Design awards, which is run in conjunction with English Heritage and the Victorian Society, with the Sheffield Tap being named the best conversion to pub use. Many years ago this Edwardian gem served as refreshment rooms and waiting facilities to train passengers, now restored to a high standard and operating as the Sheffield Tap pub, a specialist beer bar showcasing real ales and other craft beers from around the world both on tap and bottle. In doing so they have not only created a good place to drink but also saved a little bit of Sheffield’s railway and architectural heritage. Continues on page 4... INSIDE BEER MATTERS THIS ISSUE... Cider making the lazy way... Tramlines Blues and Ale trail update Sheffield University Real Ale Society plus all your local Pub, Club, Beer Festival and Brewery news! 2 3 More award winning pubs for Sheffield! Continued from the front cover. The judges comment on the Sheffield Tap: ‘Since 1976 this fine, listed interior had been left by successive railway companies to decay; as a result, the woodwork rotted away and the superb plaster ceiling finally succumbed to unchecked water leaks. In 2008, though, restoration of this fine interior finally began under the auspices of East Midlands Trains and with generous funding assistance from The Railway Heritage Trust. Craftsmen Jamie Hawksworth, Jon Holdsworth and their team worked hard to recapture the Edwardian feel of the room.
