Ale, Beer, Stout appreciation

Got some mates coming down in a few weeks and want to take them to a few ale pubs on a Saturday early evening somewhere quite central.

At the moment I'm thinking Jerusalem Tavern, Craft Beer Co (Leather Lane) and Euston Tap as they're within walking distance.

Any other suggestions round there or a better area to head for?

During the week it's fine but at the weekend I'm sure the Jerusalem Tavern is closed
