The Brewers Arms, Lewes

Impressive mock-Tudor façade with a plaque indicating the former Page & Overton Brewery ownership. Once inside, you find a busy main bar with its counter facing the door, but there is also a much larger (if less characterful) room with its own small servery at the back. Food is offered, but this place is perhaps best known for its real ales. Even in these difficult times, I found the inevitable Harvey's plus a pair of Tring beers, Franklin's Avalon (£4.10) and a cider being dispensed from five of the eight handpumps.

A nice old town pub with two rooms, a comfortable lounge at the front and a larger, plainer, public bar behind with pool, darts and a sports TV. A fair selection of changing ales on offer, with examples from The Kiln, Tring and Totally Brewed alongside the obligatory couple of Harvey's, plus some ciders.

A large 2 room pub at the far end of Lewes High Street, cant say I'm that impressed with the bar part of the pub but I really like the front bar especially if you can get a seat. A good selection of beers and the pub even do a discount for Camra members. When'ever I've visited this pub it's alway's been busy, worth the walk.

This old pub is well described below. On my visit the front room had quite a few in but was reasonably quiet. The back room had a TV blaring out sport. The bar has eight hand pumps and on this occasion two were taken up with cider and one was unused. The five beers were Harvey's Old & Best, Downlands Root Thirteen, Long Man Number Eight and Burning Sky Plateau. I went for the Long Man beer and not only failed to note the price but also the CAMRA discount clearly shown below. Although the beer was in excellent condition it tureed out to be one of their duller beers. I had been to this one before so knew it was well worth a look and was glad to find it still is.
