Well, I`ve done just that..........
During the early 80`s it was alot smaller than it is now. Now it sells throughout the West Midlands though it has been brewed for over a hundred years, where it was once sold in casks is now in bottles or cans but you can still get the poured variety at your local and it has a great unique flavour to be savoured.
This is now the rear entrance to Banks`s. It was once a through road.
The brewery also sits on a former nursing institute.
You have only had a little glimpse, why not try the real thing, like I said before you won`t be disappointed!
That will be on my list. Brewery signs and ale labels are among my favorites. I remember Old Speckled Hen and Old Peculiar as being two names that really drew our attention. :-)
ReplyDeleteI amaze myself at how little I know of Wolverhampton. This seems like a historic place that has grown in recent years unlike Newcastle Brown Ale that has recently moved production to Tadcaster in ... Yorkshire. nice to see that there is a shop to draw additional people in. I like the picture above the fireplace.
