Having announced in December 2017 that Thornbridge Brewery was to partner with Pivovar to open 10 new pub sites over the next five years, planning has now been approved on the first site.
The new pub will open this autumn on the site formerly used by Lloyds Bank on Colmore Row, in the heart of Birmingham City Centre.
The Birmingham Tap will be a traditional take on the modern Craft Beer pub, incorporating the Thornbridge brand values and making the most of the history of the building. The pub will be welcoming to all, family friendly and will have a food offering to complement the range of Craft Beers.
Thornbridge and Co hope to add to the excellent Craft Beer offering in Birmingham and give the opportunity for the city to have an ever changing range of Thornbridge beers to try on draught and in bottle.
The partnership has also secured the second site, in the centre of York, a city with another great Craft Beer community. This site is due to open by the end of this year.
Moving into 2019, Thornbridge and Co is looking at sites in London, Manchester, Brighton and Leeds.
