The Gold Balance

A child friendly pub serving food with WiFi in Kirkby.

Details

The name of this Wetherspoon pub recalls the Reverend Thomas Wilkinson, who was vicar at St Chad's, Kirkby, in the 1760s. The reverend, who is buried in Kirkby, invented the Gold Balance and the Pocket Balance for weighing sovereigns.

Very much a modern development, Kirkby has ancient origins. A chapel dedicated to St Chad was built here in the days of Alfred, the Saxon king, which was replaced by a red-brick church in the 1760s.

Drinks

Drink % Brewery
Blonde Witch 4.4 Moorhouse's Brewery

A citrus blond ale.

Tasting Notes: A punchy, full-bodied blonde ale with a distinct fruit taste and citrus hop finish.
Full Whack 6.0 Peerless Brewing Co.

The clue is in the name. A rich deep golden strong ale. The name is derived from the days when sailors from Merseyside would demand full rations.

Tasting Notes: The high level of alcohol is complemented by increased bitterness and the fruity hop finish is derived from a combination of Fuggles, First Gold and Cascade hops.
