ewanThere are an increasing number of pubs self-describing themselves as "craft beer pubs" opening up. I'm thinking of the Draft House chain, the Euston Tap, the Craft Beer Co/Cask, the Jolly Butchers and its new SW9 outpost the Crown and Anchor.
I am therefore wondering if a "Craft Beer Pub" (or just "Craft Beer") category on RGL would have any meaning or usefulness? Obviously, it's a disputed term, though the category page could link to the various arguments. It's also a bit of an ambiguous term, since it generally seems to mean a variety of things depending on who uses it (American 'craft' beer on keg, keg or cask from microbreweries, et al.). But it might be of use when searching for pubs?
What does the community think? I am veering towards not using it myself, but it does seem to have some currency.
