AROUND 50 real ales will feature in a 20-day festival at The Old Gaol House pub in Jewry Street, Winchester.

The hostelry will be changing its special guest brews each day, which come from all over Britain.

The venue – part of the JD Wetherspoon group – is also importing some barrels from New Zealand, Canada, Australia, Finland, America, Germany, Belgium and The Netherlands.

Pub manager Dominic Humphries said: “The festival will give people the opportunity to enjoy a superb selection of UK and international beers at The Old Gaol House.

“The majority of the beers on offer have not been available in the pub beforehand and I am looking forward to serving them.”

The festival runs from Wednesday, April 15, to Monday, May 4, with all the special beers priced £1.79p per pint.
