About The Dark Horse

## The Pioneer

Before Birmingham became a craft beer destination, The Dark Horse was quietly perfecting their art in Moseley. This unpretentious pub with serious brewing credentials helped establish the city's reputation for exceptional beer.

## The Selection

Twelve rotating taps feature a carefully curated mix of their own brews and guest beers from respected breweries worldwide. The 'Moseley Mild' and 'Suburban Pale' showcase their brewing philosophy: traditional techniques with modern innovation.

## The Atmosphere

This feels like a proper local pub that happens to serve extraordinary beer. Regulars include everyone from brewing industry professionals to curious newcomers. The beer garden fills up on sunny afternoons with a crowd that knows good beer when they taste it.

## What to Drink

Start with a tasting flight to understand their range. The seasonal specials often experiment with unusual hops or aging techniques. Staff genuinely know their products and offer thoughtful recommendations based on your preferences.
