We’ve got lots of places for a good drink, but the Cains Brewery seems to be the favorite of just about everyone in Liverpool at the minute."

"It's one of the most up-and-coming areas in the city and it's easy to see why when you wander around.

On a hot day, all the venues put out seating outside, including the Peaky Blinders bar and the Baltic Market."

"Grove’s sleek, minimalist darkwood interior, broken up by some eye-catching digital-print art and a bed of plants growing above the bar, may feel Scandinavian, but its emphasis is firmly on US craft beers. Up to 13 keg lines showcase many beers rarely seen on draught in the UK, from Anchor, Brooklyn and Flying Dog (try its remarkably complex, Easy IPA), as well as Liverpool Craft Brewing Co’s excellent, unfiltered pale ale, Love Lane, or that unusually tasty German pils, Rothaus Tannenzapfle. A bottled list goes deeper on the same US breweries, as well as throwing a few other great beers into the mix: various Goose Island, Sierra Nevada pale ale, Paulaner hefeweizen."
