Pints & Paints

First off, we just want to thank everyone who was involved in the Beckenham Kids Art Trail. We had a fantastic turnout and the the families involved all had a great time. Big thank you to local artist Phil Price who organised the whole event with the purpose of the trail is to give young kids a chance to create fantastic art pieces and give them a place to show their amazing art work, all while raising money for the incredible charity, Delight. If you would like to donate the link can be found here. 

We are teaming up with local artist Darren Hayman for our first Pints & Paints Session. After painting a Lego Space Man on one of our exhibition beer mats Darren was inspired to find beer mats from the 70's & 80's and draw birds on them. Darren explains in his book birds painted on beer mats, "The choice of beer mat and bird may seem arbitrary and often is, though sometimes a connection can be made between the two. Colour theory and composition can often be a decider; for whatever reason it seems right that there should be a long-tailed tit on a Courage beer mat". Our Pints & Paints Sessions is aimed to be relaxing, fun and casual, this is for people picking up a paint brush for the first time to artists wanting to learn a different discipline. Tickets are just £22 including fees and this gets you a two hour session, a complementary drink on arrival and you get to take your art work home with you. More details can be found here including the purchase of the tickets. Cask Club Member discount available!

As we mentioned last week we are proudly sponsoring Beckenham United FC for the third season in a row. The club itself is holding a Trialist In-House Friendly on July 4th for anyone interested in being part of the Senior Team (16+). If you get onto the team not only are you part of this amazing grassroots football but the kit you will be wearing will have our logo on the front. We think that is a win win situation if we do say so ourselves. There is currently an application form you can fill out here.

Peace & Love, and see you all soon for a pint.

🍻 What's On Cask! 🍻

We love Cask Ale and we want to make sure we can keep selling more and more Cask Beer. However, as the summer months come in the sale of Cask Beer always drops a little and because of this we are reducing our Cask offerings from four to three. The reason for this is to ensure we continue serving the best quality Cask Beer. Quantity is good when the quality isn't effected, but when sales drop, so does the quality and this is due to us being unable to shift the beer quick enough. Hopefully by reducing the beers to three we can continue giving you the best quality cast beer in Beckenham. So if you love the good stuff then head in for a pint or tell your friends and get the crew together to sip on the suds of this liquid goodness.
