Nothing lasts forever. Announcement of big changes at Beer Guide London: https://t.co/1yCcHl5bGg Summary: co-founder Jezza @BonsVoeux1 is moving to Bruges. The future is somewhat uncertain, but Steve @MusingAnorak explains in the article how things might work out…

Deletion from the Guide : Lowlander, Covent Garden Change of ownership, and of name, in September 2025. Beer range no longer merits Guide Entry. This one hurts. 😢

Brewery Changes : Removed : Temple Brew House, Temple Closed summer 2025 Number of London Breweries now down to 99

12th and final stop for today is the Holy Tavern. Still with a good range of St Peter's beers but now with guests.

Next up is @9thWardLondon. 14 taps of well selected beer. Just remember to look behind you when stood at the bar in order to see the beer boards.

I've headed up to Clerkenwell as a couple of places had ticked beyond the year since last visit. First up is the Dovetail. Classic Belgian bar with 14 taps and plenty of packaged beers.

Again it's a short walk to the next stop, @lyricsoho. A Big Smoke pub with a dozen handpumps and 20 taps. As busy as ever, which is always a good sign.

A very short walk to @deHems_London. 24 taps offering some great Dutch and Belgian beers, plus plenty of packaged beers, but I've gone for Hazy Jaipur by @thornbridge.

A short walk to Coach & Horses on Greek Street. 12 taps and 6 cask in this classic Soho pub. They always have interesting beers on. And it's packed, as always.

Hopefully all bars are still extant from now on! Next up is @craftbeercoWC1, 30 taps and 16 hand pumps. The usual great selection that you would expect from them.

A walk back in to Covent Garden and confirmation of the loss of the Lowlander. Now the Marlborough Head. Just another West End pub with a mediocre beer list.

A ten minute walk to confirm that Temple Brew House is no more. Now called Daly's and branded a Young's pub. (Remember them?!). Beer list very average. Brewing kit removed.

Stop 3 is @porterhousebars. Cellar bar with many, many rooms offering 3 cask and 17 taps. Unfortunately the Porterhouse beers are now brewed at either Portobello or Kinnegar but at least the pump clip makes it clear.

A short walk around the corner to the latest member of the Tap family, @StrandedLDN. 5 Budvar beers on tap served in the Czech style plus 5 other taps and 4 cask.

Doing some central pubs today, starting at @harppub, one that needs no introduction! Usual great choice including 10 cask ales in fantastic condition.

A straight walk down the road brings me to @Wigmore_London. Hotel bar that has no problems with people just popping in for a drink. They even let me in!

I've headed north to stop 7, the newly opened Queen Charlotte. Formerly the Draft House, then BrewDog, now a sister pub to The Blue Maid. No changes internally but the beer list is now similar to its sister.

I'm still standing so decided to keep going. A short walk brings me to stop 6, @SpitandSawdust_. A bit isolated but worth the effort to get here. Always something interesting on the 21 taps.

A couple of minutes around the corner is the superb Hand & Marigold. A dozen taps and 4 cask with a seriously good selection.

A stroll through the residential back streets of Borough brings me to stop 4, @Simon_theTanner. Locals pub that always offers something interesting. 10 taps and 3 cask. I'm on a Dark Mild from my home county, happy days!
