[QUOTE=NickDavies;24461]CAMRA's 1975 'Beer in London' - probably the first London real ale guide ever done, lists the following:

Bass Charrington
Brakspear (in three pubs)
Courage
Fuller
Greene King (in just two pubs)
Ind Coope (but real ale in "only a few houses")
Marston (one pub)
McMullen
Ruddle
Sam Smith ("about half a dozen pubs")
Shepherd Neame
Theakston (two pubs)
Whitbread
Young

Memories...Mixed emotions thinking back to 60s & 70s drinking! As the self appointed World’s Biggest Brakspears Fan, I remember the three pubs well – Hole in the Wall (haven't seen Brakspears recently), Coronet Bar (long gone) and Tudor Close (now Sam Smith’s Rose of York). Additionally I seem to recall that The Anglesea Arms in South Ken served Brakspears. Happy Days.
