Posts have shown cult movie touches, with film posters and even a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles-style sewer hatch.<\/p>\n
A stage has been installed at the late night venue as well as a new sound system.<\/p>\n
Outside, the old green Kerryman frontage has been painted purple to give the old pub a new lease of life.<\/p>\n
The Kerryman shut down in 2022 and cousins and co-owners Jack and Jay-Jay have been working to secure the lease on the property to create a new venue.<\/p>\n
Jay-Jay told BirminghamLive at the time the bar was announced that plans would include the addition of a movie screen and arcade machines as well as silent disco headphones.<\/p>\n
The plan is for soft launches to test out new equipment, to prime staff for formal openings and to iron out teething issues.<\/p>\n
The two-day soft launch begins at 5pm on Friday, May 23, remaining open until 4am.<\/p>\n
Spoilers does have a very late license, meaning that on Saturday, May 24 it will be open until 6am for the first time.<\/p>\n
This kind of late night license isn’t unknown in the neighbourhood.<\/p>\n
Rock bar Subside also remains open until 6am on weekends.<\/p>\n
Spoilers will open at 81 Digbeth, B5 6DY.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A ‘soft launch weekend’ is near at the old Kerryman pubThe sign in the window of the old…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":104034,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7820],"tags":[855,10845,748,10587,393,4884,10846,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-104033","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-birmingham","8":"tag-birmingham","9":"tag-birmingham-pubs-and-bars","10":"tag-britain","11":"tag-digbeth","12":"tag-england","13":"tag-great-britain","14":"tag-pubs-in-birmingham","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114512953783812707","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104033","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=104033"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/104033\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/104034"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=104033"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=104033"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=104033"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
