    Default Nicholsons Beer Festival

    It would appear that Nicholsons are having a Beer Fest between 20 & 30 January - 40 ales although the web page doesn't yet list them. I detect a 'Spoons style "do 'em all" challenge coming up.

    Thanks for the heads up.The Nicholsons chain does seem to have made a big effort in the last year to improve the ale experience at their pubs ,or have I just been lucky at the Falcon ,Clapham Junction ? Anyway I will gladly sign up for this beer festival at the end of the month.

    There are three Nicholsons Pubs in Leeds: The Palace, The Victoria and The Scarbrough. Will definitely pop into at least one of them, if I'm in the centre. Cheers.

    Had a look for Birmingham outlets, and Bacchus, Old Contemptables and Shakespeare - Lower Temple St listed.

    There's only 2 in Manchester and they are the useless Bank and the hopeless Old Wellington.

    It's hard enough to get a beer in either of them at the best of times as the staff are pathetic.
