I drink to make others more interesting
Pembury Tavern in Hackney passes from Milton to Five Points Brewery just across the road - Milton beers still available for the next year, though.

Five Points I like, The Pembury Tavern left me a bit cold last time I visited a few years ago now, will give it another go.

"At that moment I would have given a kingdom, not for champagne or hock and soda, or hot coffee but for a glass of beer" Marquess Curzon of Kedlestone, Viceroy of India.

Unseen photos of East End London in glorious colour.
I've enclosed the link to this BBC article as the photos include some nice snaps of three old boozers:
New Globe - Mile End Toad (1977).
The Old Red Lion - Gardiners Corner (1963).
The George Tavern, Commercial Road. (1969)
Are they still a going concern? I'm sure some enlightened soul will be able to tell us.
