Just had the following press release through and thought it might be of interest to some of our southern readers, I wish it was a bit closer as the temptation of 15 Otley beers in one place is huge.
O’ What a Weekend
Come celebrate one of Wales’ most innovative craft breweries, Otley Brewing Company, at the White Horse on Parsons Green.
The weekend of the 25th of February, we here at The White Horse on Parsons Green will be celebrating the creativity and accomplishments of Welsh brewery, Otley, from Pontypridd.
Otley has enjoyed success from the very beginning in 2005. They have received numerous awards regionally and nationally, including Gold awards for O1 and O-Garden at the Great British Beer festival in 2008. O-Garden also received the overall champion award at the Great Welsh Beer and Cider Festival in 2010. O6 also received a gold award at the Great Taste Awards in 2010.
We will be hosting two tutored beer and food tasting sessions, one on Friday the 25th and another on Saturday the 26th.
Friday’s event will be held at 7:30pm. It will involve a tutored beer tasting with food pairings all presented by Nick and Matt, Otley brewers and founders.
Saturday’s event, starting at 3pm, will be the same, giving those of you who cannot make it Friday night another opportunity to meet Nick and Matt and hear them talk about their brewery and the beers they are so passionate about.
We will have the largest selection of Otley beers on draught anywhere outside of Wales, 15 cask ales. The beers available on cask will include O1 through O6, O-Garden, Dark O, Croeso, O-Rosie and more.
Our kitchen will be preparing some great Welsh food specialties for the whole pub to enjoy as well. We will have Welsh lamb, laverbread, Glamorgan sausages, as well as Welsh cheeses.
This is a great opportunity to try out the wide Otley range without leaving the comfort of London.
Why not get into the Welsh spirit a few days before St. David’s Day?
Nick Otley, founder of Otley Brewing Company says, “We are very excited about showcasing our beers at the White Horse. They are very supportive of the British micro brewing industry and one of the leading beer outlets in London. It will be a fun and informative weekend and a great chance to meet the drinking public and get their feedback. â€
