Acton real ale festival

As the Great British Beer Festival has been cancelled this year, we have decided to take up the baton and create a mini version in Acton, with free entry and all welcome.In cooperation with our friends at Portobello Brewery, we have curated  a selection of more than 10 cask ales from a wide range of independent, provincial and micro breweries, with styles including mild, best bitter, porter, IPA, oatmeal stout, real cider and an exotic bohemian dark. Our friends at the Pint of Hops beer shop will be complementing these with a choice of international bottled beers.Were that not enough, we have arranged a panoply of entertainment, with comedy acts on Friday, live music on Saturday, and a charity raffle and table quiz on Sunday to raise funds for Stonewall Housing. There will also be a barbecue on Saturday and Sunday, with V/VG options available.Our core range of rotating cask ales, keg craft lager and cider, Guinness and a rare cherry sour beer, along with fine wines, soft/hot drinks and bar snacks will of course also be on offer. Please join us at the West London Trades Union Club on Friday 30th Aug: 3pm - 11pm. Saturday 31st Aug/Sunday 1st Sept: 12pm - 11pm.
