Dunno how many Brit members we have, but here goes.
My wife is a Brummie and I got to spend 5.5 months in Birmingham before she moved to the states with me. Got to drink at some great British pubs, where the pints are 20oz, the barstaff know how to pour a Guinness, and if there's too much head on your beer you can send it back for a top-up.
Favorite pubs I went to were, in no particular order:
The Malt Shovel, great Jamaican food
The Flapper and Firkin, Cambrian Wharf, where I met some great old-school punk friends of my wife.... Rocky and Viv.
Costers, in the Birmingham City Centre, after our first real "date" seeing 300 at the Electric Cinema
Plus I had a 10 hr. layover in Dublin with nothing to do so of course I bought a bus pass, rode to the city centre and sat drinking guinness for 5 hrs. Good times.
