being able to organise a -up in a brewery? how very un-salford!

Get in line matey, we're forming an orderly queue here

excuse me cough cough, beer taster, well thats a job for an expert, move aside.







anyhow i reckon the best person to ask is the Landlord of the New Oxford he has all the right connections with all the small brewers who you would invite to take part, get camera, to sponsor it or spread the publicity.
We would need a main sponsor possibly a major brewer or Real radio etc

PS Bury Beer Festival which should have been this weekend was cancelled due to lack of volunteers to help out, so the North west is a beer short of a festival.

Good place to sample a beer festival is in January at the Northern winter Beer festival in Manchester which might prove a good sounding board and research area.

using your membership privilige already



Paul, methinks you may be with A.A before then

Naah, even they've given up with him.

Ahh Bank Top, Great brewery and fine beers, a few pints of old slaper on the bank top beer walk, missed it last year

Great Idea! I'd start by contacting Camra [urlhttp://www.camragreatermanchester.org.uk/[/url and ask their advice

plenty of local micro brewers to source
Leyden ( Bury )
Bank Top ( Bolton )
Phoenix ( Heywood )
Pictish ( Rochdale )

Slight tangent I know but many moons ago used to go regularly for a meal and pint to the Strawberry Duck up in Turton and they used to have weekly guest beers from around the world. One time when walking in the beer of choice for the coming week was 'Rapist' lager from Germany. Rivalled only by 'Black Mans Willy' Rum that is sold in the States - it caused me no end of laughs haveing to explain to the ex inlaws when visting last why we both used to pish ourselves laughing at the meer sight of it.

You sure that you weren't just looking at "Trapist beer" from the wrong angle?

Bazens, your actual Salford brewery.
