On what should be our 10th Birthday, we thought we’d send some love from the archives.

We miss our friends. All of the daft laughs. Even the ridiculous amount of jukebox requests.

Oh, and Breakfast Club. IYKYK…

We know we made something really special happen at Zee Dungeon, but we also know we couldn’t have done it without you lot.

You’re never far from our thoughts.

P.S.
Feel free to add your snaps, memories and good times, but defo no more jukebox requests 😘

Evening all.

We know there’s been a bit of chatter recently, but we wanted to say hello and for this to come from us.
Now that we’re allowed to discuss matters, The Brink won’t be returning and we’re really sad about that.

We wanted to close our chapter remembering the beer we supped, the friends we made and the mischief caused ’neath 65 Bridge Street.

We’re going to share some pics before the accounts close for good, so please join in with yours.

Fancy a drink? I remember a place called The Brink.

Stay jovial as f**k.

'member when y'all asked what you could do to support us? If you could sign the petition below, maybe share it, that would be great. Everything we are, is because of our local brewers. Their future is threatened by this, please help.

The Treasury has announced changes to Small Brewers Relief (SBR) – the progressive tax system that has revolutionised UK brewing. These changes will reduce the 50% duty threshold from 5,000hl to 2,100hl: small breweries will have to pay more duty, whilst larger breweries could pay the same or less...

As we've heard this arvo, boozers are set to reopen. We don't feel we can do what WE do, while social distancing is the guidance. Y'know us - Sociable and jovial AF.
When we feel it's safe for customers and staff, we'll be back. Make no mistake.

Until then, stay safe.

BrinkSquad. 🖤

We are outta here.
Thanks for all the love over the last couple of weeks. We appreciate it more than you know.
We're probably going to wait it out, give the place a lick of paint, then go hard upon our return.
Take care of each other and we'll see you on the flip side.

We're open as usual and will remain open until the decision is taken out of our hands. We've staff to pay, customers to look after and amazing beer to sling from our fellow local indies, who we want to see kept in business.

We've had to slam the anchors on shindig, due to Boris being a sh*****se, but we're not going to let him ruin things completely. We're open and having a few beers to celebrate on Saturday, should you feel up to it.

Lots of love,
BrinkSquad

Here at The Brink, we care about each other. During close down last night, the boys kindly left a care package in readiness for the arrival of a category 5 hangover this morning. Absolutely not looking at the Gaffer. Nope. Not one bit. 🤢

*PANIC OVER KLAXON*
Right, looks like we're doing after all! We're back open with a bang. I'm Spartacus on cask! 💪

Massive apologies, folks.
