A popular Brimington pub has closed its doors after a decade – with plans for a ‘brand-new chapter’ unveiled.

Brimming With Beer, a well-loved micropub located at Chesterfield Road in Brimington, welcomed its last customers yesterday (Sunday, December 28).

“What began as a simple love of great beer became a place filled with stories, laughter, friendships, first visits that turned into regulars, and nights we’ll never forget.

"Over the years, we’ve watched customer’s children grow up, relationships begin and flourish, met a ridiculous supply of new dogs, celebrated countless milestones — and we’ve also said goodbye to some wonderful customers who are no longer with us.

"Those moments are what made this place more than just a bar.

“This really does feel like the end of an era.

“Change is never easy, but it’s exciting too — and we’re looking forward to what comes next.”
