| Hi, I just wanted to clear up a couple of glaring inaccuracies within the article mentioning The Black Dog Beer House (formally The Albany Arms). I would have preferred to have been consulted by TW8 editors before they wrote this article......no one thought of calling us to get a story? Firstly our company Twisted Grain Ltd is about a year old and not involved at all in revitalizing The Express Tavern. My other half and I helped setup The Sussex Arms in 2010,The Antelope & Big Smoke Brew co as a managment team working directly for the owners of the respective pubs but our company has no relevance to your statement. The Black Dog Beer House is our first business independantly and we would like to be seen as this, not an offshoot of a company we no longer work for. We have of course applied to update and clean up the premises licence,however the proposed opening hours mentioned in this article bear so resemblence to our proposed Opening times.....which are in fact and will always be the following Mon-Thurs 12-11pm Fri12-11.30pm Sat 10-11.30pm Sun 12-10.30pm And we definetly wont be having door supervisors on the doors,where did this nugget of knowedge spring from? Please get your facts straight before publishing articles about a new business opening. Even small inaccuracies can sometimes cause division,confusion and actually make our job of building a new business that much harder and stressfull. Maybe last week when you called me asking if we wanted to advertise on TW8 you may have thought it best to ask me then??? And yes its late at the point of writing this.....I have been up since 5am working my butt off to get our first business off the ground...so excuse the coarsness of my tone, but after reading your article Im just deflated by your poor researching.It really is terrible journalism even from a community site. Im speechless,why didnt you ask us first? Regards Peter Brew The Black Dog Beer House |
