Scozzie   10 #52 Posted June 5, 2013 I started at 12 last year and by 8, I was curled up under a bush. Jolly Farmer, Miners, Coach & Horses, Dronny Arms and Three Tuns.

Last year they had Magic Rock, Buxton and some interesting Thornbridge beers on I fear the suprises on the day will be bog standard Thornbridge range depending on what they habe brewed that week or they have loads of. Roosters The Accomplice is really good its a collaboration with Odell from America had it at the cellar door but it was £5 a pint.

Roosters The Accomplice is really good its a collaboration with Odell from America had it at the cellar door but it was £5 a pint.  There will be more.  I think it will be the usual set up with a full range of Thornbridge beers on both cask and keg on the pub bar and a changing range of guest ales on an outside bar.

The Coach and Horses rarely has much on these days except Thornbridge, certainly cask-wise, which is a shame, so I`m unsurprised about the decline in festival offerings.
