Ale in the bishop/actress

Related but not strictly bishop issue. Ignorance on part of the bar staff is also the problem, In order to get a decent pint it must be pulled in big drafts to create a head, this settles to add flavour, most pubs draw it in small tugs and measure it to the half/ pint line if you're have a light ale mix, not only is this tight fisted, it leaves a flat tasteless pint, they should always serve over the half way mark to ensure a head and happy customer! It's a false economy to eek out a meagre serving as said previously the stuff goes off.

Try the Dulwich Woodhouse, new management served me a 1st class real ale, Mines a Ram and Special!!

Any pub that cannot even get the Lager right is going to struggle with any real ale.


The Bishop simply does not sell enough ale so if you go there in the evening, the first

pint is likely to of been in the pipe all day.


The Bishop is only interested in selling bottled beers and Jaeger-Bombs.


The EDT sells a lot of real ale so there is a constant flow through the pipes.

Sounds like they are not keeping it properly and maybe not cleaning the lines regularly. Also some of the craft beers from small brewers will have a limited shelf life. If they stock local beer i'm sure one of the brewers would be happy to explain to the staff how to keep and serve it, no producer wants customers to think their stock is poor because it has been kept or served badly.


Proper beer, like all decent food and drink, needs to be served by someone who knows how to treat it. If you keep real ale badly then it will show.

    • Why change it?  You’ve got a fantastic historic, memorable name and you want to change it for something innocuous,  meaningless and empty
    • From the school newsletter:   A New Name for Dog Kennel Hill As you know we have been discussing and consulting with stakeholders about a  name change at DKH for a while. Following engagement with staff, pupils and  families, we gathered all views on a name change for the school and after  careful consideration of the feedback, the Local Committee and the Trust have  agreed with changing the school name to Grove Primary School from  September 2025.  Over the next few months we will begin a gradual process of changing our  name on signage, our website and emails etc. We will keep you updated.  We will be looking at designing a new logo to match the new school name and  will be working closely with a graphic designer to get creative. The school  council will be actively involved in this process. We will share the results with  you as soon as a design has been agreed and confirmed. We will be creating a  new school jumper to replace the old one, once the logo has been finalised. We  will phase this in over time.  We know that this is a welcoming change for some and that there are  parents and children who will be sad about the change. However, as a school  we think it will be a positive change for our school community and we will  work together to ensure that the ethos and culture of DKH will remain!
