RetroReviews: S0106 The Porterhouse (Parliament Street)

The first of the Porterhouse pubs, and probably the first "craft beer bar" in Dublin, this premises opened in 1996 and originally hosted an on-site brewery - various bits of polished brass pipework between the floors has lead to tourists I've brought here assuming they are actually drinking inside a brewery to this day!

An escape, of sorts, from the normal standard of pub in Temple Bar, with the drinks offered not generally being to the taste of a Welsh stag party; it can still be quite hard to get a seat here even off-peak in normal times. 

Once again, I've been here too many times for a writeup to resemble a single visit.
