Twelve eleven gallon barrels on 10 mobile bars.
It'll run out, but it's a start!
Good things come to those who wait.
And just the thing to celebrate signing Malcolm Owen.
When you're in a rut, you've got to get out of it!

So Rob has FINALLY hauled his sorry arse into gear...

Still, 1,000 pints is not to be sneezed at.

I'll give it till an hour before kick-off before it's all gone.

Brillant news, will the Geordies get some.

Hopefully will be easier to get a Harveys now. Will this make us the ground with the most real ale for sale (I know its only 2 but lets keep them coming).

It's because they can sell 275ml(?) of Fosters for £3.

presumably the albion ale comes in glass bottles. (Mine did) not good for footy grounds.

It was on offer for the first three games. I never tasted any, but I was standing next to someone who had some and it smelt superb.

They sold about 35 of them in those first three games.

Even in Dick's bar they had to pour into a plastic 'glass'.
