Rutland CAMRA Beer Festival

The first Rutland CAMRA Beer Festival is a little over a week away now (23rd - 26th June). I was given a sneak preview of the beer and cider list on Friday by a local CAMRA member at the Red Lion, and was hoping to break this exciting news exclusively, right here on this blog. It now appears that just about everyone and his dog has also had a sneak preview of the list, reducing the exclusivity somewhat... Still, some nice looking ciders and perries on offer, plus beer of course, but we don't concern ourselves with that here:
