West Berkshire Brewery currently has one pub - The Rising Sun at Stockross, near Newbury, Berks . It is approximately one mile from the A4 /A34 intersection just west of Newbury on the B4000 to Lambourn and is ideally situated for both local trade and as a stop off point for travellers on the A34 - and is only five minutes from the M4 . Glen Glennister and Kelly Newman are the landlord and landlady and will have been running the pub for a year in Feb 2010. They will give you a warm welcome as well as a selection of West Berkshire Beers and guest ales. They have a good menu of both hot and cold locally-sourced and free range food available at both lunchtimes and in the evenings. They have become involved in the village supporting cricket events, the village hall, the Christmas Pantomime and also hold events at the pub ranging from beer festivals to conker competitions. There is regular music at the pub - Glen is also a musician and often plays there with his own band as well as booking musicians from as far afield as France and America.
