OT - Real Ale Festival : Sun May 17, 2009 5:41 pm  

Friend of mine tells me the Albion in Battersby Lane is holding a real ale festival from Friday to Monday this coming weekend.

Somewhere in the region of twenty five real ales on offer over the four days.

Mine's a pint.

I'll have some of that, not been in the Albion since the new owners took over.

I go in there usually with other staff from work at the end of the month, it's alright in there and if the weather is good there's the beer garden at the back.

It has plenty of real ales, ciders, imported lagers etc. on usually anyway but it's good to see them have an actual festival.

Might try and finish work a bit earlier on Friday and pay a visit.
