Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

That's interesting. I hadn't heard that and I'm in the CAMRA branch that covers St Peters too....!

Twitter I'm afraid. I have a very few things I look at on there. Richard Osman is another....

The post said the new owners will still sell St. Peter's beer though!

Maybe there was a break clause in the lease and they've decided to cut costs?

St. Peter's had a 25 year lease which just came up. Here's an interesting bit of detail:-

In 1992 [the pub] was bought by a man called Julian Humphreys, who redesigned the ground floor as a recreation of an 18th century coffee house, installing the panelling, the pews, the Delft tiles and the scrubbed floor we see today. The premises ran from January 1995 to August 1996, under the name The Jerusalem Coffee House, a nod to local history, after which Humphreys leased it to the newly opened St Peter’s Brewery of Bungay in Suffolk for 25 year[s]

Anyone heading to the GBBF? I'm there today for the press/trade session as I'm doing some volunteering with CAMRA.

The Baron and I often talk about that visit and meeting you! The only other thing we recall about it were some exceptionally good pies and cornish pasties!

By the way, my football beer bet win weekend is in Birmingham this year, 19th/20th, due to the train strikes (EVERYBODY OUT!), it is going to be spread over 2 days and looks like it will include 2 breweries, Burning Soul and Indian, yes modern beer and Indian street food under one roof :-) .

I am very out of practice at this sort of thing these days!
