We're in Clitheroe. Sadly Bowland Beer foodhall was shut as was chasing some Baron Bigod. Had to make do with this from Booth's. 🤣Also bought some garlic Yarg and Mrs Kirkham's Lancashire from there so not too disappointed. 👍

We've just been to the Monkey Bar in downtown Bolton where they had Buxton's Wakin' Snakes on. It was lovely. 🙂

In the meantime, we've been in Horwich today and definitely think you're overdue a beer crawl round these parts. Get the 125. Do Bunburys, Earls, Bank Top Ale House, Beer 33, Inn the Doghouse and Blackedge Brewery Bar. 👍
