Blimey… what an Easter Ale Trail that was 🍻

Pubs buzzing, glasses clinking, and a town centre absolutely full of life from start to finish. Whether you conquered the full trail or just “carefully sampled” a few stops, it’s safe to say it was one to remember.

We’re still checking the numbers… but let’s just say a few pints may have been enjoyed along the way.

Big shoutout to all the venues bringing the atmosphere, the laughs, and the top-notch cask ale all weekend long — and to everyone who came out and made it such a cracking few days.

Rumour still stands… that American who flew in just to complete it. Legendary behaviour 🇺🇸🍺

And don’t stop now… keep supporting your town centre venues — they’re here all year round pouring the good stuff 🍻

Ps- we’ll be back!

WOW — they came in their droves for the Ale Trail yesterday 🍻

The international theme rolled on too, with a chap all the way from Latvia getting involved — we’re basically global now 🌍

Now, while the number of pints enjoyed still needs “checking and verifying”… we reckon it was our busiest day EVER 👏

Plenty of cask ale still waiting, and the lovely staff across all venues are ready to stamp your cards ✔️

A big win for the town centre too — supporting its growing hospitality scene and keeping our pubs thriving 👏

Last chance today… so put your Easter egg down and get yourself into town for a few cask ales 🐣🍺👀
