FRIDAY THE 13TH… WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? 👀🍻

Nothing, actually. We’ve got Two Rivers Deep back in the building and it’s shaping up to be a belter of a Friday night.

Good friends of ours and even better musicians, these four know how to put on a show. A seriously talented, high-energy acoustic folk band who never disappoint.

If you’ve seen them before, you know the score. If you haven’t, you’re in for a treat.

🍺 Doors open 1pm
🎶 Live music from 8pm
🎟️ FREE ENTRY, as always
🥙 Hungry? Our neighbours at Pita have you covered.

Good b**r, brilliant music, lovely people. No frills, no fuss, just a proper good Friday night.

Pull up your breeches and lift your collars, the temperature might be dropping but our wagon is still rolling!

We're making the treacherous journey to Shrewsbury to visit one of our favourite watering holes, Tap & Can.

If the name doesn't give you a clue what they sell, then you'd best go get your shoes heeled elsewhere.

We'll be lighting the fuse at 8pm, with the intention of getting those windows steamed up like a freshly cooked rum ham.

So dust off your boots, round up your compadres and come join us for a Friday night knees-up!

Does anything make sense anymore? We bloody hope not.

🦆 GET YOUR DUCKS IN A ROW! 🦆

Well, this is a quacking good way to start the weekend. 🍻

We’re absolutely delighted to be joining forces with one of our favourite breweries Duration Brewing for their DUCKS IN A ROW national b**r launch!

We’re huge fans of everything Duration do, so being one of the independent venues across the UK chosen to launch their Duck Series is something we’re pretty chuffed about.

FOUR DUCKS. FOUR BEERS. ALL POURING FRESH FROM 1PM TODAY! 🦆

🍺 TEAL | 5.4% DDH Pale
Juicy, pink grapefruit, tropical. A proper little hop bomb.
🍺 MALLARD | 6.0% NEIPA
Soft, hazy and bursting with mango, pineapple and citrus.
🍺 EIDER | 8.0% DIPA
Big, bold and beautifully dank. Apricot jam, stone fruit and plenty of juicy goodness.
🍺 RUBBER DUCKY | 4.6% Cask Pale
Soft, juicy and ridiculously drinkable. Peach, lime and white grape. A proper treat on cask!

From their beautiful farmhouse brewery in Norfolk to our little corner of Shrewsbury, we’re so pleased to be part of a launch celebrating brilliant b**r and the independent places pouring it. ❤️

The b**rs are going on as we speak and all four will be ready and waiting when we open at 1pm!

Come down, meet the flock, work your way through the ducks and kick off the weekend with us. We reckon you’re in for a treat.

KICKING KEGS, PETTING DOGS & FIVER PINTS. 🍻🐾

Well, you lot certainly kept us busy over the weekend! We’ve absolutely flown through the b**r, kicked a fair few kegs and had a whole load of fresh changes on the taps. Just how we like it! ❤️

Two particularly exceptional b**rs joined the line-up over the weekend, and they’re both absolute belters! 👇

🍺 Azvex Brewing Company - HOMER’S ITHACA | 6.2% IPA
A big, juicy, flavour-packed beauty hopped with NZ Cascade, El Dorado and Citra. Think tropical fruit, zesty grapefruit, mango, orange and ripe peach, all wrapped up with a lovely soft bitterness. An absolute cracker!

🍺 GlassHouse B**r Co - SKULLS | 5.4% PALE
One of their Halloween specials, and what a treat! 🎃
A big, fluffy, juicy pale bursting with stone fruit, citrus and a little orange sweetness, finished off with a gorgeous smooth bitterness. Seriously good stuff.

And stealing the show in today’s photo is our mate Luther! 🐶❤️

One of our favourite four-legged regulars, always up for a fuss, partial to a pub visit and quite possibly one of the clumsiest boys we’ve ever met. 😂 We absolutely adore him!

Now, it’s Tuesday, the weather’s absolutely miserable and we can think of much worse places to be than tucked up in the pub with a decent pint.

GO ON THEN! 🍺 FIVER PINTS ALL NIGHT!

Our usual Tuesday suspects are pouring for just £5 a pint, so come and shelter from the rain, bring the dog, grab your mates and make a night of it.

Doors open, b**rs pouring, here ‘til 11pm! 🍻

Home. And feeling very bloody grateful. ❤️

Firstly, our team. Keeping the bar busy, the b**rs flowing and everything ticking over while we’ve been away. Knowing Tap and Can was in such good hands meant the world. We’re so lucky to have you lot.

Then there’s Berlin. Months of training, injuries, tears and wondering whether we’d even make the start line - especially Rach. But we both made it to the finish. When it got tough, remembering who we were running for gave us a reason to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Together, we raised £6,164 for WellChild helping children with complex medical needs thrive at home with their families, wherever possible. 💜

That total belongs to all of you too. Every donation, every kind word, everyone who got behind us. Our customers, friends and family, you’ve all been incredible. We crossed that line with full hearts and very tired legs. Thank you, so so much.

Now we’re home, ready for a pint and a proper catch-up! Open 12–11 today, then our celebratory social 5k tomorrow. Meet at the bar at 11am. No egos, no stopwatches, dogs welcome and a half on us afterwards. 🐾🍺

Lots coming up, festive plans nearly ready to share and another challenge brewing… but first, let’s see your lovely faces. We’ve missed you. ❤️

Vesper’s been at the bar for 10 minutes and quite frankly the service is appalling.

We’re here 12–11 today and the boards have had a fair old shuffle already this week 👀

New on from Vault City Brewing x Azvex Brewing Company - Bake-Off: Cranachan. Raspberry, honey, cream and wh**ky barrel goodness, inspired by the Scottish dessert. Basically a boozy pudding. Lovely stuff.

THEN Azvex Brewing Company have gone and sent us Tennis Racket Theorem - a big fluffy NZ hopped IPA, all white grape, peach, lime and general deliciousness.

Plenty more changes besides. Come have a look, have a pint, have another one.

And tomorrow - RUN CLUB 🏃‍♀️

Our last one before we head off to Berlin to make some questionable life choices over 26.2 miles 🇩🇪

11am from the Tap / social 5k / free half when you get back.

Bring your dog. Bring someone else’s dog. Come without a dog and admire everyone else’s. We prefer them to people anyway, if you hadn’t gathered by now.

Right. Someone get Vesper a pint.

12–11 today 🍻

PAPERBOY IS BACK AT THE TAP. 🍺🎸

If you were in for Loop Fest back in May, chances are you caught this guy. And if you did, you’ll understand why we’ve been itching to get him back ever since.

Paperboy (Ollie Bond) joins us again this Friday, kicking things off from 7pm.

Somewhere in the realms of folk / alt-indie, bloody lovely voice, and just really, really good. He’ll be playing a mix of his own stuff alongside some covers - basically perfect Friday-night-with-a-pint material.

He went down an absolute storm last time. The Tap was rammed, the b**rs were flowing and it was one of those days that just worked.
So we thought… probably ought to do it again.

FRIDAY 11TH SEPT // FROM 7PM
PAPERBOY @ TAP AND CAN

Free entry, obviously.

Get yourselves down. This one’s bound to be a belter. 🍻

WYLAM. What a bloody lovely night 🍻

Our Wylam Brewery Ltd Tap Takeover kicked off last night and you lot showed up 🫶 So good to see the bar packed and so many of you working your way through the taps.

Big love to Lee from Wylam for coming down, drinking some b**rs with us and just generally being an absolute legend. 💙

And the b**rs… they’re ridiculous. 4 cask, 7 keg, plus TWO extra specials pouring in the cellar 👀

Today is dark, gloomy and very much giving sit in the pub and ignore the outside world. Luckily, we know a place.

Come hide from the rain, drown your sorrows in some outrageously good Wylam b**rs and get the Bank Holiday weekend started a day early.

OPEN 5-11 🍺

Newcastle’s loss, Shrewsbury’s gain for a few days. 🖤🤍
