Reading is a brilliant city for a stag do. Everything's central, and there are some quirky, independent-style venues to complement the more obvious chain bars. Like this cracking place, which is just a few streets away from the river. Get the lads out of bed on Saturday for a beer tasting session with a difference.
We're talking full flexibility and total control. Not to mention live sports and delicious food! This place prides itself on offering a laid-back environment, great eats, and awesome beer. In other words, it's exactly the kind of venue the lads will want to spend all afternoon in.
You can book your craft beer tasting session (the session takes around two hours) for any time between midday and 8pm. Each lad gets a fistful of beer tokens (6, to be precise), which he can spend on any guest ale, craft beer, or cider. One token is equal to one schooner (that's two-thirds of a pint).
Don't know what to choose? No problem. Friendly, knowledgeable staff are on hand to help you make sense of the beer list! Go for ales that complement your food, mix and match to see what you get, or find a favourite and stick with it.
