Pub to host 12-day beer festival featuring ales from around the world for £2.79 a pint
Beer lovers will have the chance to sample ales from across the globe when a town centre pub hosts a 12-day beer festival next month.
The Saracens Head in Brook Street, Daventry, will stage the Wetherspoon festival from Wednesday, October 7, to Sunday, October 18, featuring beers from Britain and five international brewers.
The overseas selection includes ales from China, Singapore, Ukraine, the USA and Denmark, with beers from Singapore and Ukraine being served at the pub for the first time.
Many of the beers have been brewed exclusively for the festival, with unusual ingredients including coconut, coriander, mango and tea.


Among the international offerings are Lion Mango IPA from Singapore, Urbrew Oolong ESB from China and Varvar Session Golden Ale from Ukraine.
British beers include Cairngorm Autumn Nuts, Otter Reggae and Loch Lomond Flying South.
All beers will cost £2.79 a pint, while customers can also sample three third-of-a-pint measures for the same price.
Pub manager Luke Finch said: "The festival is a great celebration of cask ale.
"It will allow us to showcase a selection of superb beers, featuring many not previously available to our customers in the pub, including those from brewers as far afield as China and Ukraine, as well as those closer to home, over a 12 day period."
Five vegan-friendly beers will also feature, with tasting notes available in the pub and online.
Customers can order at the bar or through the Wetherspoon app.
