Welcome to the George Inn near London Bridge; a cosy, wood-panelled, galleried coaching house a few minutes' walk from the Thames. Consider this: who else has made this their local over the last 600 years? Chaucer and his fellow pilgrims almost certainly drank in the George on their way to Canterbury. Shakespeare may have popped in from the nearby Globe, and we know that Dickens definitely did. Mail carriers changed their horses here, while sailors drank here before sailing.

Pete Brown is an excellent storyteller. the narrator was also excellent on this.
this was an excellent jaunt through history seen through the lens of one building.
I study historical Brewing and it's also important to study The culture and the places that beer would have been drink. and I thank the author for writing this.
