Tourney: Bristol - NS - 17-18.09.2011

There will be the following booze on sale at the event.

Butcombe Bitter (4.0% ABV)

                                   The West Country's favourite  beer derives from pure Mendip Spring Water…notably bitter, clean  tasting, refreshingly dry and distinctive. Made with 100% best Maris  Otter malt                                             (the Rolls Royce of malts),  together with a blend of (never divulged) English hop varieties…Butcombe  Bitter is a moreish Mendip masterpiece!

At last – a premium quality cider that tastes of apples!*

                                  **Nose:** Fresh and fruity.
                                   **Palate:** Robust apple taste with a slight bite.
                                  **Colour:** Golden Straw.
                                                                       **Comments: **Ashton  Press is made from all English apples, pressed locally and conditioned  in oak vats, producing a wonderful medium                                     dry, strong, golden cider of superb  quality. A wholly owned subsidiary of Butcombe Brewery, The Long Ashton  Cider Co. was purchased in                                     2003 to celebrate the achievements of  the National Fruit and Cider Institute, based at the Long Ashton  Research Station near Bristol,                                     which enjoyed 100 "fruitful" years  until its closure in 2003.
                                **At 4.8% ABV this medium dry cider is slightly stronger and marginally drier than say, Westons Stowford Press.**

There will also be a lager on sale too (TBC but probably Carling or similar - non draft).

THE GOOD NEWS IS, WE WILL BE CHARGING JUST £1 PER PINT ACROSS THE WHOLE EVENT!! THAT'S THE SAME PRICE IT WAS IN THE EARLY 90'S!! Hacked Off won't be drinking, but will be encouraging everyone else to drink as much as possible (especially before they play us!).

Oh God - there goes any possibility of 8-ball scoring anything let alone qualifying from rounds. I only need to bring a fiver and itll be the best weekend for a while... Read it and weep Ady. Next team name: Pistatpolo
