the 'Long Burton Weekend' drinking thread

[The Maharajah of Sydney]

In other Burton drinking news, I've just spotted this on one of their threads. I've no idea which hostelry it relates to, but it sounds....erm....exotic...


The Social club is open at 6pm this evening for pre match enjoyment. We have a trial offer on of growlers £1.20.

Calm down, we are only talking beer here.

Although now you mention it, there is a bit of a Silence of the Lambs look to these ones...

Breakfast completed. Those coming by train turn right, ignore first pub. Next is a Micro pub The Last Heretic run by Palace fan but he is a good chap. Then the Devenshire, a Burton Bridge Brewery pub. Turn left out of the station a d in the car park of the Travelodge is a Wentwell Brewery micro pub. Continue down Derby St for another Bridge Brewery pub. Ground 25 min walk.

Checked in at Travelodge Central and started at the Micro Pub in the car park, Wentwell Brewery beers. Moved on to the Bridge Street Brewery pub round the corner called the Albert (may be the first pub from the train station). Tonight it's another micropub and then the Devonshire, another Bridge Street Brewery house, followed by the Coopers and the Indian next door. Should be around 12 different decent ales, average price £2.70. And for the Wife, a selection of still ciders.

Cider for the wife?
Don't they sell Snowball?
Have a great day.
