Thanks very much Stan! To make sure I have understood, a Beer House Keeper would sell beer from a residential house, rather than it being a business premisis like a pub or tavern? Would a Beer House Keeper sell to the public, or pubs/taverns, or both? Would people come in and drink on the premisis, or buy and take away? Many thanks for your help, I really appreciate it!
