Boothscheers beer and cider festival

Those lovely people at Booths (that wonderful Northern supermarket chain) are holding another #Boothscheers celebration as they are holding their first beer and cider festival. They have very kindly sent us a parcel of 2 lovely beers and 2 lovely ciders, one of the beers  has been specially brewed for the festival aptly called "Festival Ale" for us to sample and tweet about.

Stringers Delta V -a pale ale brewed in Ulverston Cumbria, Stringers is a microbrewery and is powered 100% by renewable energy and uses the lovely lakeland water in all its brews. A lovely flavoured brew and a great ale to use in our Ale and Spelt bread.

Festival Ale - limited edition ( our bottle is 2710 of 6400 bottles) specially brewed for Booths by Hawkshead Brewery to celebrate Booths 2013 Beer and cider festival. Try and get hold of a bottle and use the #BoothsAle to share your comments. Light refreshing and summery ideal with the summer BBQ.

Browns Medium dry cider - organic medium dry cider, pressed, fermented and bottled at Dunkertons cider mill in Herefordshire. Browns is a special type of cider apple , hence the name. We have used this cider in our Pork tenderloin and cider, caramalised apple sauce.

Orchard Pig Reveller - medium sparkling cider from Somerset, this one needs to be served chilled orginating from a brewery nr Glastonbury.
