Hi All ,

I have a small request to you all , i'm trying to establish what stock levels in terms of drinks I need to consider for the BBWF BBQ. Would you say the majority are Bitter, Real Ale , lager , bottle beer , cider or a good mixture of all . Any help would be appreciated.

Looking forward to seeing you all.

Kirk and Ali

Real Ale, something along the lines of Bombardier/Spitfire/6X, ie not too strong.

I doubt if you'll be able to get Westons Cider, but if you want to, speak to Rose Mann at Westons in Much Marcle and mention my real name.

Bottled Beer and Jack for me. If I wasn't driving the next day I'd be on the real Ale, but 'tis a bit heavy for me for only one night.

Spitfire is always on I think maggit.
Andrea would like some cider (Old Rosie, Westons bottles (Vintage) or similar). Real ale for me - prefer 2 different extras but something mid strength (4-5%). Maybe something local. Approx 60% male and 40% female for the BBQ - 110 at the moment and expecting the full 120 no problem.

Kirk - As a heads up, for the curry there will be about 30 of us coming in late afternoon on the 4th and we're leaving to go for a curry in Stratford at 8.30. We're coming back around 11.30. Will you still be open as we'll come back for a nightcap, otherwise we'll coach back to the hotel.

Kirk,
Might be an idea to put your usual draught beers on here as this will restrict your responses.

my regular real ale is Spitfire ... I will also have at least two more ales probably from a local brewer called Goffs - do a really nice selection.
We also stock Guinness , Stella , Carling XC , Castlemaine xxxx , Strongbow , Flowers Best , Boddingtons Cream , .... standard bottles are Holsten Pils , Bud , becks , Magners Cider , and a few alocopops.

FFG - in reply to your request for Friday Night , so long as you know what time u are arriving back , I need to put u in late entry book with approx numbers then no problems . Law states that I must not let anyone in after 11:00 without prior arrangements , as I'm licensed till the wee hours this is to stop people travelling from nearby pubs etc trying to get late drinks after 11:00.

Cheers kirk

I can help with that...we are laving the curry house in Stratford at 11.00pm so should take 20 mins or so. Numbers on the bus will be a max of 35

Cheers

Sounds great Kirk. Local brewer would be great.
As jeffsy said max 35 from the curry but probably nearer 30. We'll update you early in the week before on numbers - can give you names too if that helps. Did you pick up we're coming in before as well with the coach picking us up at 8.30.
I'm at 115 for the BBQ and the cut off is next week so I'll call you next week with the final number and sort payment etc.
Spoke with Roger today - he's now home and looking forward to this Saturday night - 130 should be a fantastic night and the weathers looking good too.
