A brewery is to have a tap room and bar area added to its existing warehouse unit.

Rusty Pier Crafthouse's plans to turn its brewery in Bell Tower Industrial Estate, Roedean Road, Brighton, into a part-drinking establishment have been approved by the city council.

This means a bar area will be installed in the entrance with a serving area. There will be indoor and outdoor seating.

The bar will be open from noon until 10pm on weekends and bank holidays.
