This coming Thursday (16th June) is Stan Laurel’s birthday and to celebrate it we have specially got three fab beers from Ulverston brewery. Ulverston in Cumbria was the birth place of Stan and their beers are named after all things Laurel and Hardy. Firstly we have the 4% ‘Another Fine Mess’, a pale, full-bodied beer with a sweet, hoppy aroma. Secondly we have another 4% beer named ‘Laughing Gravy’ after the duo’s dog. This one is a light, copper beer …

2nd Amateur Comedy and Jokeaoke night.

What a day!
Wow! What a day we had yesterday! Thanks to the Newark Beer Festival being run in town, we had loads of new visitors from all over the area and the pub was heaving all day. When the festival ran dry five hours early (well done to them) it seemed like everyone converged on the pubs of Newark to satisfy their thirst for real ale. We at JB got through nine beers in one day and the Blue Monkey Guerrilla lasted …
JB on the Radio
As a follow-up to Tapster Dunc’s interview on Radio Nottingham, the station is visiting the pub on the afternoon of 3rd December. So if you think you’ve got a face for radio (and that’s most of you ugly mugs!), come down and join in.
Game for a laugh?
We’re thinking of starting an amateur (open mic) comedy night at JB’s. Anyone fancy a go? Get in touch…
