Brand new to Green Man 2013 their very own beer & cider festival plus beer tasting trip and festival ticket competition
Green Man has shared his love of tasty food and drink for years but now he is stepping things up by launching his very own beer festival, located in the relaxed surroundings of our gothic Victorian Courtyard.
We can’t get enough of all the amazing brews available locally, so we have brought an unrivalled choice of 99 ales, ciders and perries from 21 different Welsh brewers and producers to the Real Ale and Cider Bar in the Courtyard at Green Man 2013 .
As usual all our bars will be serving our very own Green Man Growler Ale from the Wye Valley Brewery, alongside our house cider (Weston’s Stowford Press) and house lager (Dortmunder Union Vier) all for an unchanged £3.80 a pint.
