No idea if true, but it was always said someone drowned in the Gales brew tank, when I told the ex he got out for a pee she failed to see the joke

yes it's true; I was shown the very fermentation vat where it happened on a tour of the brewery about 1983, apparently the head brewer of the day (1920s?) committed suicide by drowning in it.
Slightly similar to the old story about how they invented porter but that's not a politically correct story anymore :eek:

They mean very little to me. The only one I've been in is The Spaniard and that was twenty odd years ago.
Ive only done 3, the Lansdowne,Spaniards and Nags Head,the Nags Head is a really nice pub that is well worth a visit,i was a bit dissapointed with the service in the Spaniards,too slow and that was in winter,dread to think what it would be like on a summers day.
It's grim oop North :D

Only the Nags Head for me , but well worthy of the listing in my opinion as a pub , the only downside for me is its exclusively Adnams unless things have changed in the last couple of years.
