We had an apple-solutely juicy weekend at the Wenlock Arms! 🍏🍻
Thanks to everyone who joined us at the Wenlock Arms Cider Festival this weekend. It’s been legendary sharing all of our delicious (and slightly devious!) ciders with you 😌
Nothing beats seeing people discover a new favourite pint, chatting all things cider and enjoying a proper festival atmosphere.
Fancy getting involved in one of our juicy cider festivals? We’d love to hear from you!
