Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Meux beers in 1921
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
Inspired by this post of Zythophile about the Meux vat-bursting disaster, here are some beers from the Tottenham Court Road Brewery.
Not a very large table, I'm afraid. And a couple of the beers - those from November - almost certainly weren't brewed there. According to Zythophile the brewery on Tottenham Court Road closed sometime in the autumn of 1921. Brewing was moved to the Nine Elms brewery in Wandsworth, also owned by Meux.

And here's a map of what was up for sale:
Given the location, it must have been worth a bob or two.
