Speaking about the new bar announcement, Grant Dexter, regional operations manager at Camerons Brewery said:

“We are really excited to bring The Head Of Steam to Birmingham, it’s a vibrant city with brilliant nightlife, and a developing craft beer scene which has proven very popular in other cities across the UK.

“Our aim is to create a welcoming atmosphere for all, including dogs. This has been a big success across the Midlands locations so far, with our four-legged friends becoming regulars. We will serve hearty signature food with a contemporary twist and beer pairings, offering specialist craft beers, cask ales and cocktails alongside.

“You don’t need to be an ale aficionado to enjoy the offering, with our trained beer sommeliers on hand to answer any questions and offer recommendations.”
