and live on Freeview channel 276
Brimming with Beer, on Chesterfield Road, has been crowned Pub of the Season.
Owner Ben Stephenson, who launched the business three years ago, said he could barely beer-lieve it when he got the news.
“I was pretty elated, to be honest,” said the 31-year-old.

“I had always worked in and around the trade, mostly catering, before I took the plunge.
“When we took on the building, it was just an empty shell.
“We quickly made it our own, transforming a former florist into a bar and shop.”
A keen community feel is what separates Brimming with Beer from the rest, says Ben.
“We do a lot of dog walks and day trips,” he said.

Add a vast array of ever--changing beers and ales you won’t find anywhere else in Chesterfield, and a 50p discount on Wednesdays for CAMRA members, and you’ve brewed up a recipe for success.
“This was the vision for a long time,” added Ben. “We can’t thank our customers enough for their support.”
