Brewery Visits: a number of irons are in the fire, just awaiting confirmation from brewers as they see how they are fixed in the coming months.

 

Keep checking this page - we often get offers from brewers that we can't refuse, but at too short notice to get into the O to K Magazine.

For coach trips we ask for a £5 deposit , which is not normally refundable. It is usually also possible to pick up at Browns Coaches in South Kirkby.
