The Tribute Ale Trail has begun, and Blue Ball Inn is one of the participating South West pubs. 🍺

Pick up a Trail map at the bar, purchase a pint of Tribute and collect our unique Blue Ball Inn location sticker. Take the map to other participating pubs and keep building your collection.

Collect stickers from 10 different pubs and receive a complimentary pint of Tribute at the pub where you collect the tenth qualifying sticker. The Trail is designed to be completed over time, so there is no need to rush it.

The Tribute Ale Trail is separate from the temporary Cask Ale Week Buy Five, Get One Free promotion, and the two cannot be combined. While both are running, ask the team which promotion you would like your qualifying pint to count towards.
