BEER-LOVERS from Bromsgrove are in for a treat next week thanks to a five-day festival at a town centre pub.

Publican Becky Regan, who runs the Golden Cross, in High Street, has lined up what she describes as "an unbeatable selection of real ales" for the beer festival which kicks off next Wednesday.

It runs until Sunday, November 4 and all beers cost £1.49.

Becky said: "I'm confident the pub will have the best choice of real ales in the area.

"I have sourced the beers from a wide range of brewers across Britain.

"The festival will give people the opportunity to enjoy an excellent selection of real ales that are not normally available in Bromsgrove and it promises to be a lot of fun."

Among the beers on offer will be Oakhill Black Magic Stout, Tomintoul Nessies Monster Mash and and Hop Back Nessies Nectar.
