Our popular games night with a skittles match amongst ourselves. This regular event is on the first Wednesday of the month at the Phipps’ Albion Brewery Bar who have offered a £10 voucher to the monthly winner. If you don’t play skittles, you are still more than welcome at this monthly event and you can always play cards or dominoes instead. Meet at 18:30, starts at 19:00.

After last year’s popular day trip to Manchester by train, I will be organising this again. Very similar to our November London Day Out, but with better and cheaper beer and pubs not visited for a long time! This time the pubs on the list will be in the Northern Quarter with the train fare around £30 with railcard.

With the national launch of the Good Beer Guide 2027 today, this year we have our own launch hosted by the Malt Shovel Tavern, our current Pub of the Year. For any member wishing to purchase the indispensable GBG, a limited number will be available at a discounted price (cash only). The Good Beer Guide is the UK’s best-selling beer and pub guide and it continues to represent the best of the best in the brewing and hospitality industry with 4,500 pubs, bars, and clubs selected. With eight beers including a dark and cider too, there will be something for everyone. Meet at 19:00.
