Ringwood sales process slammed as a 'sham'

Carlsberg Marston’s attempts to find a buyer for the iconic Ringwood Brewery prior to announcing its closure have been branded a “sham”.

'A pub is for life, not for 10 months of the year'

'A pub is for life, not for 10 months of the year'

As if ‘Dry January’ wasn’t enough, the geniuses at Macmillan have joined in with Sober October. I guess when your CEO earns in excess of £190,000, originality is too much to ask!

Finally visited @brockleybrewery bigger site at Hither Grn. Now something of a veteran founded 2013, still doing a fair amount of cask, enjoyed the fine XPA. Good crowd including local families, comfy taproom, decent food truck, surprisingly welcoming amid the likes of Screwfix! – at Greenwich, London

Just been looking @worldbeerawards 2023 Winners. I was fortunate enough to judge the Flemish Reds, all of which were a delight. Well done to @Sosab for their Flemish Red Ale XII getting the World’s Best Sour & Wild Beer Award. It had some really strong competition.

Ooops it's 4pm, I should be pouring a beer? Thunder and rain outside at present but the late great Joe Cocker is helping pass the afternoon.

Replying to @MarkPowellSoho
@MarkPowellSoho Flyposting is illegal and unacceptable. We love where we live in #Cricklewood. Please respect our neighbourhood and remove your multiple posters on this vacant shopfront at 223 Cricklewood Broadway.

Great point made here. With pubs long being sitting ducks for cynical disposal, it would help greatly if statutory listings were not just about historical merit but could be broadened to protect any buildings that are central to an area's "essence of place". @CampaignforPubs

This was our local when we lived nearby - shame though that I think the skittles table is no more. Great landlord at the time was Ken Barrel (hope I got that right) and his good lady wife.

Great visit to "the Devvy", Devonshire Arms, Bedford, a wet-only pub 5 cask ales. @WeareWellsandCo pub, may be first one opened by Charlie Wells in 19th C. Landlord Ronnie Toms is a great character & serves fans of Bedford Blues Rugby Club. Not to be missed -- a gem @brewpointuk
