Granada Reports and Marble Dobber
The Marble Manchester Bitter went at lunchtime so we will be joined this evening by the Marble Dobber (5.9%ABV).
Granada Reports popped in at lunchtime and spent around three hours filming and interviewing a few of us for a piece about micropubs. It should be broadcast over Christmas/New Year.
Thanks to those customers who contributed.

Return of the Swan
The Bob's Brewing Co Chardonnayle went tonight so the ever popular Swan Blonde is back on from Bowness Bay, and it's even better than the last cask.
Waiting in the wings are Marble Dobber and Blue Monkey BG Sips. Also on the stillage is Unsworth's Yard Cartmel Penninsula and Scarborough Sealord.
Should have been collecting a Hopstar Lush tomorrow but we are being filmed for a TV piece so won't be collecting until Thursday. Exciting times!

Christmas Outing
The Christmas outing on December 9th is now fully booked.
If anybody would like to go on a reserve list in case of withdrawals then please get in touch. Contact details are on the right sidebar. Much better would be to pop in when we're open and have a nice refreshing pint at the same time.

Ale Update
The second cask of Hawkshead Cumbrian Five Hop went during yet another really busy night tonight. So tomorrow we will be introducing the Barngates' Brathay Gold, a new ale only launched on Monday.
Bob's Chardonnayle is also going down a treat, so get in early.

What's On Then?
Sadly the Marble Pint has all gone. But new on tonight will be the Marble Manchester Bitter.
Also new on tonight will be the 4T's Brewery LJ's. A delightfully light pint with an equally delightful pump clip. In fact if the pump clip appeared on a bar in the Houses of Parliament it would probably be banned by some PC dragon.
There is still Hopstar Lancashire Gold and Bob's Chardonnayle on, but only a few pints of Hawkshead Cumbrian Five Hop left.

Flying in from East of Eden
The Hawkshead Cumbrian 5 Hop officially went on last night and is going very quickly. There is still some Leeds Best left, but not a lot, and some Gregory's Gold and Derventio Troll.
Flying in from near Manchester Airport for the weekend is the Ringway Brewery Session. From Cumbria we will be joined by Eden Brewery's First Emperor. Both are new microbreweries who have only been brewing for a couple of months but are already building fine reputations among the drinking classes.
Hovering in the background is the famous Marble Pint. It might be on this weekend, but it might not be appearing until next week, we'll have to see.

Christmas Outing
We are planning a Snug Christmas outing on Sunday 9 December. Provisionally leaving The Snug at 10-30am heading to the Manchester Christmas Market. Dropping off at the Marble Arch around 12-00 then City Centre about 5 minutes later. Pick up about 6-00/6-30pm then back to The Snug for about 8-00pm.
We originally thought of popping to Rusholme for a curry but there is enough opportunity to feed at the market and in the city centre pubs and restaurants. I will give an idea of cost as soon as possible.
If interested let us know here or preferably in The Snug asap.
