Borough Beer House

About

Independent beer house opened in December 2023 by a family who run a nearby pub which is a regular Good Beer Guide entry. Specialises in cask and keg ales, bottles and cans. There are six handpumps serving a variety of cask ale styles from around the UK, normally including a dark beer, a best bitter and 'new wave' ales. Eighteen keg lines provide a range of changing beers from UK, Belgium and beyond. Four real ciders are poured from 'bag-in-box' containers and two from keg. The website is kept very up-to-date with current beers and events. The building is full of character, dating from 1674, being the former Bailiff's Hall in the historic Town Hall Buildings and Grade II listed by Historic England. The downstairs seating area is fairly small and there is a larger upstairs room. Pizzas (1/2 price Sunday and Monday), sharing boards and bar snacks are served every day. Accompanied well-behaved children of 8 years and over are admitted at all times. Closes at 6pm winter Sundays and 8pm summer Sundays and bank holiday Mondays. Regular tap take overs are held and a "Crush the cask" promotion, is currently running where every Monday and Tuesday three of the cask ales are only £4 per pint.
