Local CAMRA members were once again invited to a festival ale tasting at The Pilgrim's Progress on Tuesday 8 October. Free festival beer tasters and pizza slices were served and members were invited to visit the ground floor cellar to see how the pub finds space for all the extra ales and to taste a couple more from the festival range, drawn straight from the cask. A small optional raffle with prize was held to raise money for charity. Many thanks to Wetherspoon and The Pilgrim's Progress for the hospitality.
