Beer News From Liverpool 04/04/18

Beer News


23 Club / Clove Hitch


It is with a heavy heart that I tell you that Liverpool's first craft beer bar, The 23 Club in the basement of 23 Hope Street, has closed its doors for good along with The Clove Hitch bar and restaurant that occupied the rest of the building.  I am lead to believe it has something to do with the condition of the building.

The 23 Club basement bar has had problems over the last year, the most significant lead to it being closed for about 13 weeks last summer. 

There may be some light as I have heard a rumour that a company from Manchester is interested in buying the building.

Liverpool Organic Brewery


I have recently heard that Liverpool Organic Brewery has called in the receivers and are currently looking to sell the business off as a going concern.  I hope a buyer can be found and we won't lose such great beers as Kitty Wilkinson.

This is purely the brewery.  Real Ale Events is unaffected.
