A whole week in Whitby, North Yorkshire. In normal times there would be 5 Good Beer Guide Ticks to aim for.
Two are micro pubs - its highly unlikely they have indoor space, yet alone outdoor space.
The Black Horse and the Station Inn were both walked past and all closed up. Shout out to the Black Horse who were super quick on their Facebook messages and pointed me in the direction of the Whitby Brewery It would have been a crime to miss this.
This leaves the Little Angel in Flowergate. Three attempts at an on-spec visit were met by the folded arms of the Urban Genie Bouncer that would not let us pass.
Its a good job Mrs M had the foresight to book us in for the Thursday Quiz on the final night of our holiday.

The reason they can open is they have the rarest of pub things in Whitby - a pub garden. They've done a fine job, adding a roof and fairly lights and staffing it with the most wonderful people who will happily bring you Three Brothers ThaIPA on demand.
With a team of two humans and a dog, we presented a similar effort to the Baggies in the Prem. Finishing 2nd Bottom with the talent on display was not a disgrace.
Failing to know who took charge of the Tory party in 1975 was. Good job we scored highly on the food picture round. It would have been 100% if I hadn't have convinced Mrs M that her correct answer of "Scouse" was "Stew".
She forgave me the day after. At about the point we reached Sheffield.
