Sam Martyn from George's Brewery will be hosting a 'meet the brewer' event on Thursday 29th at 7pm, where customers will be able to learn about the brewing process and take part in a Q+A session. Further 'meet the brewer' events will be taking place on Saturday 1st October, brewers and times tbc.
It's not all about ale though, with a wide selection of hand crafted British Cider Championship ciders and perries and craft beers.

Mark Skinner, General Manager of the Peterboat, had this to say:
"Here at the Peterboat we are passionate about our beer and have invested a lot of time training staff on how to store, condition and serve the best quality real ales available.
Our real ales have become so popular we can now offer up to fourteen different guest ales per week with a minimum of five different ales available at any time. Our ales come from all over the country and we are always happy to promote new and exciting beers alongside the more popular brands."
So if you'd like to quaff something beyond the usual fare, pop on down to the Peterboat to wet your whistle.
Just remember to have a big breakfast.
