The Vale Legends Mini Beer Festival
The Bull's Head and 'Derek, I'm Gutted!' have combined to put together the Vale Legends Mini Beer Festival over the easter holiday week. The festival was the brainchild of 'Derek' editor Andy McCormack, who, inspired no doubt by The Sproson Fund and Titanic Brewery's 'Burslem's Legend', used his extensive knowledge of fine ales (all sampled in the name of research, obviously) and all things Vale related to produce a team of Vale related beers.
Bull's Head landlord Bob is donating 10 pence from each pint sold to the Sproson Fund, so as fundraising events go, this one is nothing short of genius. The team is listed below, just to whet your appetite.
