Good morning to 5,724 of you! This week we checked out Hopsters, the new craft beer bar in Bury St Edmunds, to see if it truly deserves a five-star review. Watch the video here.

P.S. We were also invited on the radio to chat about Bury Juice! It was a great chance to highlight all the great events and happenings around town. Thank you, as always, for your support!
