Have you noticed!

We have Motorhead Roadcrew on draught why not pop allong this afternoon its the perfect refreshing IPA in this heat - if you ask we’ll even put Ace of Spades on while you partake…

ROAD CREW - Road Crew is an American pale ale packed full of hoppy citrus and blackcurrant flavours, delivering a crisp, refreshing, superior taste to celebrate the spirit of the song and those who inspired it. Motörhead For Life.

Also we’ve re stocked our Septima Malbec for those who requested

The 2013 Vintage was a 2015 Decanter World Wine Awards Bronze Trophy Winner
A classic example of Mendoza Malbec, crisp with rich flavours of spicey bramble fruit
A classis style, the long growing cool climate helps the wine retain a crisp fresh style and minerally flavours. Winner of a IWSC silver medal

Last and not least please support our neighbours, John Parkin is playing solo from 4pm today

See you soon on
