This business was trading as the Tonic Ale Brewery, its location in Tindal Street or Conduit Street, it being variously listed at both streets. 1855 was the earliest listing as a brewer although Thomas Durrant, presumably Andrew's father, was trading as a beer retailer.
In 1864, Andrew Durrant advertised his prices and the fact that he was a Domestic Brewer, wine, spirit and hop merchant.
Amongst the usual range of draught beers, Andrew also produced a "X Domestic Ale" at 10d (4p) per gallon, and "Tonic Ale" at 1/4d (7p) a gallon. He also supplied Bass and Allsopp's Pale Ale at 7/0d (35p) per dozen and Guinness's Stout at the same price. Tindal Street had previously been called Conduit Street as a watercourse had passed down the centre of the road, commencing at the end nearest the Cathedral and discharging into the River Can.
