</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On the 1<sup>st</sup> <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Sunday</b> afternoon and the 3<sup>rd</sup> <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Monday</b> evening of the month you can be entertained by the ‘Musical Folk Session’. This is an impromptu, unrehearsed acoustic folk music session where you can come along to listen or join in with a group of like minded musicians and singers. All the musicians who regularly come along from all over this area welcome newcomers so if you are curious just come along.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On alternate <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Tuesday</b>s we have a Poker Night, (see monthly menu for dates and times). The poker games are for both people who can play already or who want to learn to play. It is an informal and friendly group of men and women who are eager to gain and share knowledge of the game and raise a small amount of money for local charities along the way. For a small amount of money you can ‘buy in’ to the game which will give you the chance to win a 1<sup>st</sup>, 2<sup>nd</sup> or 3<sup>rd</sup> prize of Wellington Inn drinks vouchers which you can spend in the pub as cash at any time. All the rules will be explained to you at the start of the evening and there is always an explanation sheet showing the various ‘poker hands’ available for beginners.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Wednesday</b> we have an ‘Intellectual Inquisition’ or ‘Quiz’! that starts at approx. 9.00p.m. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Every week we have a different volunteer Quiz Master who receives £10 in drinks vouchers to spend in the pub for taking the time and effort to set and host a quiz. Anyone is welcome to add their name to the list of quiz masters. Although the format is usually similar the content varies so it is always interesting and entertaining. Forty questions, ten of which are generally photographs that have a link and a £2 drinks voucher goes to the person who discovers the link. There is always a ‘spot prize question’ which any team member can answer, again gaining them a £2 drinks voucher. To encourage fair play we also have a team forfeit points system. We call a team ‘6 people’ so if you only have 2 people in your team you gain ½ point extra for each member you do not have in your team i.e. ½ x 4 = 2 extra points. If you have 7 members in your team you are deducted ½ point for the extra member in your team. This can and does make a big difference to the final scores. The winning team receives £16 in drinks vouchers and the team which comes 2<sup>nd</sup> to last receives £4 in drinks vouchers. If you would like to host a quiz you can arrange the questions into your own headings such as, topical, local interest, general knowledge etc. but it is always advisable to attend at least a couple of quizzes before volunteering so you can get to grips with the vast knowledge of our regular teams. Quiz answer sheets can be provided if you do not have the facility to print them. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

Imagine cruising down the Mississippi with a big band of musically articulate chaps playing all those tunes that you have heard a thousand times that provoke a memory of pleasure and contentment. Well that is how I think of it. It might not be your cup of tea but if it is come along and enjoy it! </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So to our latest venture, the <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Brewery</b>;</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Well it has long been Richards’s ambition to install a brewery here at The Wellington Inn. Over the last few years it was a dream but after several months DIY, planning and reorganisation it became apparent that it would come to fruition. As a casual observer it may not seem much of a step from licensee to brewer but l can tell you, it has been a big challenge. The path has been strewn with compliance, technical education and regulations, but I am very proud of the end result. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Initially some extensive DIY took place in what was the kitchen/storeroom which is now the brewery and office.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Finding suitable vessels was not the easiest task and although we were very pleased with them they had to undergo major surgery before they could be installed. This though gave us chance to sort out some of the administrative work and get the plumber and electrician on the job.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Unfortunately the snow stopped play for a couple of weeks which delayed the return of our brewing vessels. So there was a big sigh of relief when they returned gleaming and reconditioned.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On 23<sup>rd</sup> June our very own casks arrived and everything was starting to move a bit faster. So when we received notification from HM Revenue & Customs about Richard’s Certificate of Registration for the brewery we were given the green light to get the all the vital ingredients.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As always when you are trying really hard AND using new equipment for the first time you naturally come across a couple of stumbling blocks. Richard was not entirely happy with his first efforts but after making some adjustments and slight alterations to the brewing equipment he soldiered on. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><shapetype coordsize="21600,21600" filled="f" id="_x0000_t75" o:preferrelative="t" o:spt="75" path="m@4@5l@4@11@9@11@9@5xe" stroked="f"><stroke joinstyle="miter"></stroke><formulas><f eqn="if lineDrawn pixelLineWidth 0"></f><f eqn="sum @0 1 0"></f><f eqn="sum 0 0 @1"></f><f eqn="prod @2 1 2"></f><f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelWidth"></f><f eqn="prod @3 21600 pixelHeight"></f><f eqn="sum @0 0 1"></f><f eqn="prod @6 1 2"></f><f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelWidth"></f><f eqn="sum @8 21600 0"></f><f eqn="prod @7 21600 pixelHeight"></f><f eqn="sum @10 21600 0"></f></formulas><path gradientshapeok="t" o:connecttype="rect" o:extrusionok="f"></path><lock aspectratio="t" v:ext="edit"></lock></shapetype><shape id="Picture_x0020_5" o:spid="_x0000_s1026" style="height: 155.25pt; left: 0px; margin-left: 426.75pt; margin-top: -2.2pt; mso-position-horizontal-relative: text; mso-position-horizontal: absolute; mso-position-vertical-relative: text; mso-position-vertical: absolute; mso-wrap-distance-bottom: 0; mso-wrap-distance-left: 9pt; mso-wrap-distance-right: 9pt; mso-wrap-distance-top: 0; mso-wrap-style: square; position: absolute; text-align: left; visibility: visible; width: 99.75pt; z-index: -1;" type="#_x0000_t75" wrapcoords="-325 0 -325 21496 21762 21496 21762 0 -325 0"><imagedata o:title="" src="file:///C:\Users\janette\AppData\Local\Temp\msohtmlclip1\01\clip_image001.jpg"></imagedata><wrap type="tight"></wrap></shape><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">With all this attention to detail going on in the brewery I turned my attention to working on a suitable pump clip to compliment the finished article. After discussions with Richard about prospective names for our initial brew and some design help from my son Neil we came up with: ‘1<sup>st</sup> Duke’ (Richard’s 1<sup>st</sup> beer). We feel that the pump clip encapsulates the pub from the red ceiling to the green marble bar and of cause the 1<sup>st</sup> Duke of Wellington himself.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You will also notice the small glass in the right corner showing the colour and a.b.v. of the beer.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On the 31<sup>st</sup> July 2011 we launched the brewery to an admiral group of<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>expectant punters who welcomed the ‘1<sup>st</sup> Duke’ just as much as I had hoped. <span style="color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;">‘1<sup>st</sup> Duke’ is a soft copper coloured bitter, brewed with a combination of English hops and malts.</span> <span style="color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;">It has a fruity aroma with a typically English malty taste combined with a dry hop bitter finish. At 3.7% a.b.v. it’s a true session beer.</span><span style="mso-fareast-language: EN-GB; mso-no-proof: yes;"> </span><span style="color: black; mso-themecolor: text1;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The brewery is now running well and 2 new beers have been brewed, ‘Wellesley Stout’ 4.4% and a blonde beer ‘Beau Douro’ 4.3%.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you are interested in the history of the pub and the surrounding area visit Paul Gibson’s website.
