Three Gloucestershire Pubs link up
for Community Pubs Week
|
North Cotswold
Branch of the Campaign for Real Ale
|
Three of the nine pubs adopted for Community Pubs Week by active
CAMRA members Martyn Herbert and Roger Price linked together to host a very
successful Safari Evening on 21st February 2008. This involved
three Gloucestershire Pubs in the North Cotswold area, The Royal Oak at
Andoversford, The Plough Inn at Cold Aston and The famous Mousetrap Inn at
Bourton on the Water. Twelve CAMRA members enjoyed a starter at the Oak with
5 Real Ales, a main course at the Plough with 3 Real Ales and a sweet at the
Mousetrap with 2 Real Ales. The most popular food combination was, Thai Crab
Cakes, Pork Plate with a confit garlic baby onion & apple jus, and Apple
& plum Crumble with custard. The Community Pub Week packs previously
delivered were deployed with promotional material and in the case of the Oak
they also hosted a quiz the same evening in conjunction with Sharps Brewery
which was very well attended. The pubs involved were sufficiently close to
minimise travel time between each and the
programme was maintained by pre ordering of the respective courses by |
