A beer brewed for Perry!

To celebrate all the time Perry has spent at The Crompton and his advanced age, Trevor at the Derby Brewing Company has produced a very special beer. Perry wanted a strong, pale ale and 50 20 was the result. First served at Perry's 50th birthday party, it is going down very well! Make sure you try some while we still have it!

Perry's party and pssst! at the Crompton

Great night on Saturday - lots of old faces, some we haven't seen for over 10 years. Bit of a reunion night. Hoping to collect photos for the next issue of Pssstt!! which is now under consideration. Anyone who wants to contribute feel free, we have a new agony aunt-uncle so any problems will receive the consideration they deserve! Hand in behind bar/ put in suggestion box (by front exit) or speak to Kate.

Call for pssst!! contributions

Pssst!! at the Crompton - special anniversary edition

Back in 1997 we did four issues of 'Pssst!! at the Crompton'. To celebrate our 20 years we are going to produce a special anniversary edition - some time during November 2009. We are also going to find a way to post the back editions online (but this may take a bit longer!). If anyone has any contributions to make, hand in behind the bar.

Big Draw

It feels like a lifetime - because it is!

November 1989 we moved to Derby and took over The Crompton Tavern, so on Saturday 14th November we're having a party and hope everyone we have known during our time here will join us to celebrate 20 years as Crompton Taverners. Think we're probably the longest serving, family run, independent pub in Derby centre and have enjoyed (nearly) every minute. More info soon - along with details of the exhibition which will open on the same night: regular Ian Minion's 'Cantasia' a show of 3-D objects created from recycled cans and bottle tops. Art, beer and a great juke box- what more could you want?
