The White Hag, The Serpent
Green Pale Ale, 4.5% abv
It's the final round of the tournament and we have all to play for. The Irish are up against the Scots and with both sides only just losing their respective matches last weekend, scores are looking to be settled this time around.
Our final choice of Irish brewery for the event is big hitting and very well respected, welcome to The White Hag. Based in Ballymote, Sligo, The White Hag has been established since 2013 and produces some really excellent and exciting beers. Proof of this can be seen in this weeks choice of brew... The Serpent.
The Serpent is a limited edition beer created to celebrate St Patricks Day. It's not just the distinct tastes of gooseberry, lychee and peach that will draw people to this 'Spring Ale' though. Nor is it the awesome can art or clever name which bears homage to St Patrick himself. Instead, the big talking point will most likely be that the beer is completely GREEN in colour.
Hopefully, the same colour of green as the side that lift the Six Nations trophy on Saturday. Come on Ireland!!
Italian Wines:
Wine Not Wednesday: Italian Wine Night! 🥂🇮🇹
This month, we're heading to Italy - the land of bold reds, crisp whites, rolling vineyards and a LOT of wine history. As Italy is one of the world’s most diverse wine producing nation, we’ve decided to dedicate a night to it.
From the rich, structured wines of Piedmont to the sun-soaked flavours of Puglia, this is your chance to explore Italy’s finest - all without leaving Bangor!
What You Can Expect:
🍷 A handpicked line-up of Italian wines from north to south - full of personality, charm and just the right amount of drama & emotion.
🧀 A classic charcuterie board from The Big Cheese Belfast, expertly paired with the evening’s wines.
🥂 Hosted by our resident wine wizard Maso, who’ll guide you through the stories, grapes and regions behind each pour - no snobbery, just good chat and even better wine.
Whether you're a devoted Chianti fan, a sucker for something sparkling or just looking for a relaxing midweek treat - this one is not to be missed!
