This Pub is Closed Long Term

This pub and microbrewery are long-term closed. Closed by the Owner.

Located near the junction of Braunstone Gate and Narborough Road, this is Leicester's original brewpub, opened in March 2016. The brewer likes to experiment with his recipes and take on board customers' suggestions. Four house beers are available with at least three guests from quality local microbreweries or further afield. The brewery is behind the pub and can be visited by customers. Live music nights twice a month. The owner / brewer aims to produce innovative beers the range of which will increase over time.
