Chef & Brewer owner Spirit has been bought by Greene King after agreeing a takeover deal worth £773.6million.
Spirit has an estate of 794 managed pubs including those under the brands Fayre & Square, Flaming Grill, Taylor Walker and John Barras.
There are also 433 pubs in its leased estate, the majority of which are former managed sites with an average annual net income of more than £100,000.
Greene King which owns 1,900 pubs including the Loch Fyne restaurant chain and makes Old Speckled Hen and Abbot Ale is refocusing its business on its managed estate, and is keen to benefit from Spirit's position in London and the South East

So that's another few hundred pubs to add to my avoid list. I should point out that this isn't actually a physical list but does include just about every pub in Central London, Fuller's pubs, Young's pubs, McMullen's pubs, Well's pubs, Greene King pubs, most Shepherd Neame pubs, Brewdog pubs, pubs that think it's acceptable to charge four quid or more a pint and just about any pub that features the word "craft" in its name.
I'm more than happy with the options that leaves me!
Craft beer cocktails - anyone tried a Tothill Street Martyr?

WE ARE THE BREADMEN - UP THE BEES
I read it too quick and thought it said HERRING, but it's HEERING (some sort of Cherry Brandy) still barfable I guess.
If I could afford it I would try that cocktail.I have tried a few at home.Youngs double chocolate stout and Sam Smiths -Apricot works well.Any cheap wheat beer or lager if desperate mixed with a fruit beer makes a great summer drink.Lot better than most British fruit beers that only use flavouring rather than fruit.
