Lion Music Festival Roaring Success!!!!!

A massive thank you to everyone who supported us last Saturday. The annual Summer Gathering Music Festival at the pub was the best ever.......many new faces at the Lion and new friends made.......great thanks to the bands and musicians who played their hearts out in support of the British Heart Foundation............and a big thumbs up to our excellent staff who were dead on their feet at the close of play.......a really brilliant day............

Exciting news.......the patio is finally about to be upgraded and work will start in the next couple of weeks, together with some new signs and our battered tub chairs are being recovered.........we will almost look like a new pub!!!

Ringwood from sunny Hampshire are our brewers of the month, so watch out for their best bitter, Fortyniner, Boondoggle and Old Thumper........excellent and we'll established beers that are hard to find north of the Watford Gap..........for a regional brewer, they will be very popular.....CAMRA discounts apply at all times of course.....

Don't forget we have ten real ciders on sale at all times.......we have been amazed at the genuine feedback on these products.......clearly the Lion has the best range in Nottingham and actually one of very few pubs that take these great products seriously.......they are becoming very popular with a variety of customers who are tempted to try something completely different..........we will be providing more tasting notes and information on the products in the next few weeks......as well as some sampling to tempt disbelievers !!!!!.......THE LION IS NUMBER ONE FOR REAL CIDER!

The weekends beer range is also on the website.  wwe.thelionatbasford.co.uk  Join our Twitter feed for daily updates on beers and Rock n Roll Burgers and entertainment.
