Organisers of the biggest mobile beer festival in Wales are again ready to hit the road, but this time they have a larger bus company operating larger buses and a new simpler route on a one way system. This they believe will avert the problems experienced last year enabling the transport to operate satisfactorily.
Each of the ten Denbighshire pubs taking part has a bus stop conveniently placed outside and a special bus service is being laid on to transport punters between them. On Saturday, July 9, the annual Vale of Clwyd Festival of Real Ale and Cider will give people the opportunity to choose from a selection of approximately 60 different real ales and 12 ciders.
They’ll be able to taste everything from a Purple Moose to a Rosies Cider and alongside famous brews like Young’s and Theakstons will be ales from Conwy, Wrexham and Flint and even cider from Llandegla.
GHA coaches will service the pubs in an anti-clockwise direction taking in the Kinmel Arms, White Horse and Golden Lion in Llandyrnog, Golden Lion -Llangynhafal, White Horse -Hendrerwydd, Griffin -Llanbedr DC, Three Pigeons - Graigfechan, White Horse - Llanfair, Drovers Rhewl and the Kings Head Llanrhaeadr will all be serving food with music and activities.
GHA coaches Wrexham, plies the route every 15 minutes from 12.00 midday. A rover ticket price at just £5 means passengers can get on and off whenever they please throughout the day at any of the pubs or at Ruthin bus station.
