The Consortium Louth in East Lindsey

On a mini pub crawl Saturday night. This little micro brewery is situated in a side alley next to the masons Arms. Really nice atmosphere slightly more mature clientele with a juke box. Beer was good. Lovely staff. Will return

Amazing bar. Super friendly. It's a very small bar but has an amazing array of craft beers, Gins, and Vodkas. They also sell wine, etc. No food apart from crisps and nuts, because that's not what it is about. Really good music. A definite must visit, if you are in Louth

Great little micro pub near the indoor market. Brewing it’s own range of beers available for consumption on the premises in the cosy lounge area and also offered as take away. Lovely well kept and well crafted beers - highly recommended.

Excellent bar with great service and product. Micro brewing at its best. The beers change on a regular basis. Own guns and cider too. Also a great jukebox.

We arrived towards closing time…, unfortunately. A very friendly lady took our order, a few cocktails. I was even able to order my own creation, a Henry’s Dream (43, Whisky and Frangelico, on ice. Thank you very much. A nice atmosphere in the pub. We’ll be back.

Spoke to the lovely man on their market store as bought a gift pack and then went for a drink in the Consortium. My husband tried the three sample beers ( I thought was a great idea) I had the most delicious still strawberry cider which tasted like a melted strawberry ice lolly. Of course I had to buy a few bottles to take home with me!

This is little hidden away micro brewery sharing a cobbled yard with the Masons Hotel. Masons provide food for the hungry traveller but the beer all made by consortium brewery is spot on. I made a visit after speaking to the stall holder and owner at Louth Market selling his beer. Went for a pint of Louth Pale Ale and a very warm alfresco welcome and lovely lunch. Brilliant. Will definitely call again.

Fabulous friendly place with good beer brewed on the premises......Like the darker beers.....but also a good range of gins also dreamed up by Tony

Tony is a character (when you find him), he loves his beer and it is clear from his brews. If you like real beer you mustn't miss this little gem.

Our family of 9 managed to squeeze in this fantastic little bar before having dinner in town. We were made incredibly welcome and we were even invited to stand behind the bar for a family photo. It was a lovely gesture and we now have a great memento of our trip. Go easy on the homemade gin though. My head was spinning.

Maybe we visited the wrong week, the same beers were on seven days later which is worrying, They showcase there own continually changing beers which is ok, but the ones we tried were bland, the Louth Pale was at best bland and at worst dishwater, no body or depth of flavour, one thing I have noticed in louth none of the pubs seem to do many swaps, none of the big hitters were in evidence like Magic Rock, North Riding, Abbeydale to name but a few. The decor in Consortium was ok the staff welcoming but with a little more thought and better choice it could be one of the East Midlands great Micros, so come on up your game and they will come.

Great place for a few beers with friends good atmosphere great place for a quiet night out. It is hidden down the side of the Masons Arms with a variety of spealist ales etc

A splendid little micro pub selling ales brewed on the premises and guest beers, very friendly owners, a must for real ale enthusiasts

Good brewery outlet with a good range of pleasant beers. 3 glass paddles are a good way to sample the various brews. Pleasant outdoor seating

Came across this place by sheer chance and what a great little venue! Landlady was helpful and friendly, good choice of ales to quench your thirst. Enjoyed looking at all the other ales that have been made over the time the place has been open and will definitely visit her again next time we are in Louth.

But I will be back. Always a good atmosphere and really friendly helpful staff Special brews for the Vintage day .....wow I knew it was special after a 1/2! There is limited room but that adds to the fun? I do recommend you seek it out ....you will not be disappointed

We moved to Louth recently and went for a few drinks on a much needed baby free night. We happened upon the place whilst we were looking for somewhere else and we were glad we did. Paul served us who was great and was very helpful with choosing our drinks and showed my husband round the brewery too! My husband had the taster of 3 beers and particularly liked the ‘best’ and I had the very fruity raspberry ripple cider. Thanks again to Paul and we will defo be returning.

We came here for a couple after a me on town.The owner was a great laugh and made us up some cocktails he thought we’d like. He even altered them to our taste which was ace!Would highly recommend, quirky design but well worth a visit!

Friendly micropub tucked away in a courtyard in the attractive market town of Louth. My visit serendipitously coincided with their local beer festival. Good beers, some brewed on the premises, reasonably priced. Recommended.

A truly quaint pub.....one for those liking quirkiness and those who don't follow the norm.....hosts a mixture of draught beers for those who are adventurous....all persons made welcome....put this on your TO DO list...whilst in Louth

Friendly, tiny place, with a really good selection of local beers on offer. Well worth a visit for the beer connoisseur!

The Consortium is one of those places that you're just thrilled to discover. Very intimate with a great selection of beers, and very knowledgable, friendly staff. Highly recommended !!

Amazing little pub, full of real ales and cider. Just reading some reviews and 1 star someone has given for a bad Sunday lunch!! Really!! They don't do food! It's a gem of a place and a laugh is always had here. Long may it last x

Tiny, cosy and lovely little bar. Great selection of homebrewed ales. Staff are always friendly and welcoming although the landlady could do with working on her people skills a bit! Definitely recommend it though despite their use of single use plastic straws in todays awareness of this issue, hopefully they will become greener in the future

Just to let people know, the Consortium don’t do food so the negative comments about Sunday lunch etc do not apply to the pub.

We paid our first visit here and what a gem of a find it is,

This is a tiny pub - but well worth a visit to sample from the very large variety of beers they have in stock/on tap. The locals seem to know everybody and have a wealth of knowledge about where to go and what to see - and the staff are v friendly too.

Called into the Consortium for a refreshing lunchtime drink whilst in Louth on a busy and very warm Wednesday market day. Great little place. Several interesting beers and ciders. We enjoyed the Gin and tonic cider and the Thundering Molly Cider plus one of the excellent draught beers. The welcome was friendly and we were given interesting info about the different drinks. Nuts with Humalayan salt (!) were good too! Will return for a longer session!

Wandering around the streets of Louth as you do when we came across The Consortium. A fine selection of ales and cider including a random flat cider made of Elderberry and Gin and Tonic!

This is a great micro pub with a unique quality. Greta beers on offer - we love getting a selection of halves along with the usual accompaniments (nuts etc) and just talking to other customers - met many different people form different places - this is what GOOD looks like!

As claimed on their sign in the corn market the Consortium is a ‘Real Nice Place to be’. Recently revisited the consortium this weekend with family. It was pretty quiet due to the weather but as with the last time we were here the place was warm, friendly and some really great drinks on offer. You can get a great beer brewed on location but also for those who just want a coffee they do a great one of those too. Great Place to pop in if you are just in town or for a couple of pints with a mate or two.

Great ales, both local and from elsewhere in the country; at least one craft cider; good coffee; welcoming atmosphere; friendly and knowledgeable hosts. As a lady of mature years, I do not make a habit of going into pubs by myself, but I would be quite comfortable having a drink on my own in these surroundings.

I spent my Christmas and New Year in Louth. It is a lovely little town. I visited The Consortium with the family and enjoyed a lovely ale - you can't beat a brewer who knows his stuff - Great brews Tony.

A small establishment in the Market hall precinct. Spent a pleasant evening tasting a number of beers brewed on the premises.

Tucked away behind Cornmarket, this is a great addition to the pub offering in Louth. Good range of real ales and stouts some made in-house. Locals and staff very friendly to a pair of tourists dropping in. Good value prosecco if you're not a beer drinker!

Great little Micro Pub in Louth Friendly owner Brewing Ale on site. (Upstairs) If you like Real Ale this is the place to go!!

Great welcome from the staff. I tried some beers and we did enjoy our 'girlie' catch up. I'll definitely go back and I'll recommend it. Neat little addition to Louth!

Newly opened, with indoor and outdoor seating, and opposite the Masons Arms Hotel, so should get trade from the drinkers who are no longer made to feel welcome there. I'm told they will be brewing their own beer in due course, which is all positive.

stopped for few ciders love the fact its not branded owners really great guys beer choice good allin all great place good luck in this new venture

This has only recently opened and is a great micro pub.
