I believe the answer is:

twelve apostles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'where you can find venue with beers to store letters' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'faithful followers' is the wordplay.
'faithful' becomes 'twelve' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'followers' becomes 'apostles' (I have seen 'Followers of Jesus ' mean 'apostles' so perhaps 'followers' could also mean 'apostles').
'twelve'+'apostles'='TWELVE APOSTLES'

'of' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
