REAL ALE GROUP
We are a small friendly group. At present we have between 8 – 10 members, but would like others to join who enjoy sampling Real Ale and a good chat.
We usually try to sample 6 beers in half-pints, and give them a score. If food is also available we will have a meal. We try to get the pub between 12.30 and 1.00 p.m. and finish around 3.00 p.m. Getting there can involve a walk if it is Maldon or use of the Bus.
Pubs or bars all around the area are visited provided there is a bus service or we can walke there. Vists over the years have included Maldon, Chelmsford, Purleigh, Heybridge, Woodham Mortimer, Burnham, Goldhanger and Colchester and even an international trip to Brugge in 2017.
We meet on the 4th Wed of the month and now have a schedule of planned visits through to December 2024 [see events page] some of these may change and whilst every efort will be made to update the web site it is recommended that if you wish to join a visit that you notify the co-ordinator in advance.
