The pubs will still be getting ready for us, but we’re already serving!

In THIS month’s social, before we enjoy a chat over a pint or two wth friends in our virtual bar – well, actually, your homes…

We’ll be joined by our #camrahitchinvirtualfestival partners Kelchner Brewery

They’ll lead us through a REAL tasting of their beers, brewed just over the Beds border in Ampthill.

The tasting beers, which we you hope you ordered, will be (in bottles):-

Lekker (summer style bitter) 3.9%
Gold 4.1%
Masquerade (red ale) 4.3%

but you could also stock up with polypins of 5, 10 or 20 litres

James Blonde 3.9%
Hat-trick 4.1% triple hopped
Lekker 3.9%

Or see Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Kelchner-Brewery-2074537279498690/

If you didn’t order, please join to hear the beers and brewery described. THEN order!

We’ll continue with a friendly social in our virtual pub = your home!

What better way to spend a summer Wednesday evening?

AND, if that’s not enough, running already from 5 PM on July 1st, there is a PRIZE QUIZ!

Go to Instagram or Facebook stories
https://instagram.com/nhcamra or https://facebook.com/NHCAMRA or
visit this post again tomorrow, July 2nd 10 AM until 5 PM.

Felix, one of the co-owners of Small Beer Brew Co. conducted a live tasting at the Red (On)Lion virtual pub from CAMRA – the Campaign for Real Ale (https://theredonlion.co.uk/login) on Tuesday 23rd June. CAMRA North Hertfordshire was there and you can see some of it on IGTV https://www.instagram.com/tv/CBycTppJq04/

Just 3 trivia question answers about the Original Small Beer co. could win you a gift pack of their beers, donated to us!
The quiz will run for 24 hours and we don’t mind HOW you get the answers right – Google them, go on their website https://theoriginalsmallbeer.com, phone a friend, purely guess or even ask the hosts (us) on Wednesday evening. Beware, though, followers of #whowantstobeamillionaire will know the host Jeremy Clarkson is often wrong.

In checking them out you will LEARN AND DISCOVER (https://camra.org.uk/learn-discover/) about the concept of small beer and the brewery itself.

Everyone getting all three right will go into a ‘hat’ and the winner will get the pack. Results by 4th July – ooh, that’s an important date!

If you think you don’t like lower alcohol beers, we think this will change your mind. The Dark Lager at 1% ABV is a revelation!

REMINDER:
The questions are on Instagram and Facebook stories NOW!
