🎯 SPECTATORS WANTED!

Well… you lot have only gone and done it!

Our Speed Pétanque Mêlée this Sunday is SOLD OUT — for players! 😲

We’ve got 40 players taking to the pistes from 10am, which means there’s going to be plenty of action, plenty of boules and, we suspect, a healthy amount of competitive spirit!

But now we need YOU…

The players are sorted. The pistes are full. The bar is open.

All we’re missing is an audience!

So come along this Sunday, 13th September, grab a drink, settle in and watch the action unfold. You don’t need to know your boules from your boulettes — just bring yourself and enjoy the atmosphere.

🎯 Speed Pétanque — SOLD OUT for players

🌞🔥 After an extended summer holiday, during heatwave after heatwave, where even CAMRA diehards were reaching for the ice cold lagers - we’re very pleased to announce the return of Courage Directors to our stable.

One of the finest English beers there is, it will start conditioning from Tuesday morning and we expect it to drop bright by the weekend.

Welcome back my friend! 🍻🦁

🍑 COMING SOON TO THE RED LION 🍑

NEW TO KEGWORTH!

Meet Jubel — a 4% Session Lager cut with Peach.

And before anyone starts worrying...

YES. PEACH IS A FRUIT. 🍑

Which means technically this is a healthy choice.

Peaches count towards your 5 a day, right? So we're basically doing our bit for the nation's wellbeing. 😉

Light, fruity, refreshing and a little bit different — Jubel is coming soon to The Red.

We'll let you decide whether it's one of your five...
