We can confirm that there will be an Ale Trail in Northampton that launches at the Beer Festival on 2nd June!

The Ale Trail involves visiting pubs and collecting an individual sticker at each one and attaching it to your Ale Trail Card. A sticker is awarded when a half or full pint of locally brewed real ale is purchased.

You will have 3 months to collect the stickers (it ends on the 31st August 2023) and cards with 16 or more stickers will be exchanged for a CAMRA Glass and two bottles of beer at the Phipps Brewery.

Ale Trail Pubs Announced!

We are pleased to confirm that the list of pubs below will be taking part in our Summer Ale Trail.

Each pub will have its own unique sticker that will be awarded to anyone purchasing a half or full pint of LOCAL Real Ale between 2nd June and 31st August inclusive. Ale Trail cards will also be available from each pub as well as at the Northampton Beer Festival (2nd and 3rd June).

Collect 16 stickers and you can then collect a beer glass and two bottles of locally brewed real ale from the Albion Brewery Bar.

If you complete the card (i.e. collect all 23 stickers) then you will also be entered into a prize draw!
