Change Your Clocks!
Don't forget to turn your clocks back an hour Saturday night/Sunday morning.
Now then, the important stuff. Currently on the bar we have:
Clearwater-Devon Darter 4.5%
Eden-Dark Knight 4%
Bowness Bay-Mere Gold 3.8%
Andwell's Resolute Bitter 3.8%
Dark Horse-Hetton Pale Ale 4.2%
Next up will be Kirkby Lonsdale Singletrack, Eden Cumbrian Black and Marble Pint.
Good news for all the Marble fans, we took delivery of a cask of Manchester Bitter ('brewed to Mancunian standards', I love their ditties on the pump clips) and a special cask of Farmhouse IPA at 7%. We now also have Marble Ginger 5.1 in bottles, a few bottles of Earl Grey IPA and a few of Bennett's Progress.
For those joining us on the Manchester trip on December 1st it's payment time. If we could have your tenners by the 1st November we would be most grateful. If anybody can no longer join us would you please let us know asap as we already have a reasonable reserve list.
As we will be launching The Snug Ukelele Club in January I thought the following highly appropriate:

The Snug Beer Festival-22 & 23 November 12-00 til 9-00pm
Plans for our first beer festival are advancing nicely. It will take place in The Snug and the Furness and Midland Hall at the station on Friday and Saturday from 12-00 until 9-00pm.
There will be 20 beers available in the hall and up to 10 in The Snug. In addition there will be 5 ciders, wine and soft drinks available. We are planning to have the full range of Marble beers in The Snug and are discussing with the brewery the possibility of a meet the brewer session some time on the Saturday.
Food will be available (9-00 til 5-00pm) in the Refreshment Rooms, with The Snug offering our usual range of beer soakers such as pork pie and cheese and crackers. After 5-00pm there will be a barbecue until 9-00pm.
Admission will be £4 which includes glass and programme. £2 will go to the Heritage Trust, a very worthy cause, and the other £2 will be refundable if you return your festival glass rather than keeping it. All beers will be £3 a pint, £1.50 a half and £1 a third. The festival glasses will be lined half pints with a third marked on them too. Pint glasses will also be available.
Posters and flyers should be ready this week. Please let us know if you could put a poster or two up and/or leave some flyers where people can take them.
