Leigh East send someone to Leigh RU to see how cask beer can attract customers.

mon Leigh

well said lowton centurion, if leigh ru can win real ale club of the year, i am sure easts can do likewise. also a question, is it free to enter the club at leigh east, or do you have to become a member

You need a landlady who brews her own ale

Leigh RUFC is a community club also she makes no profit from doing it the club get all monies taken and she gets paid a wage.

We can organise some Round Ash (our own brew) for you Mr Chairman if you would like to give a barrel a go see how it sells

Another vote for East here if they get cask on. Won't be able to move in there!

I will continue to go in the Ellesmere though just in case they're getting worried at losing custom!
