THE beer will be flowing again at The Ram in South Woodchester when it re-opens this weekend.
There was consternation in the village when its only pub abruptly shut earlier this month.
But now The Ram would be in business again from this Friday although initially only for drinks, new landlord Phil McAsey said.
"We're sorry that the pub had to be closed temporarily but we're working flat out to get the cellar re-stocked and to re-decorate," he added.
Mr McAsey, whose family owns The Ram, said he'd re-employed the bar staff and would be hiring a chef and kitchen staff when the kitchen has been refitted.
The Ram's previous landlord Tim Mullen has left the 400-year-old inn.
