Brains selling off 40 pubs.

None listed yet. Unlikely they'll be kept going - probably be converted to flats or similar.

Re: Brains selling off 40 pubs.
The Brains family are obviously cashing in - they’ve sold the Brewery site on Penarth Road at the side of the station which is currently being demolished to make way for a huge development and the public house sell off confirms the scaling down of their business empire.

Wonder if they use water from the Taff?

Re: Brains selling off 40 pubs.
I’m not sure
Obviously a brown field site acquired on the cheap with huge incentives from the Welsh Arsembley government.
And to Eric I wouldn’t be surprised if they used water from the Taff as their beer always gives me the trots 😂😂

Re: Brains selling off 40 pubs.
The new brewery is in Tremorfa. It’s a tin shack that was opened last year by HRH Prince Harry.
Brains have pubs as far afield as West Wales and Bath. In fact, I got married just outside Bristol and the deciding factor was the Brains pub next door so that I could nip there before the wedding with my entourage and have a swift Reverend James!
