Happy St. George's Day: 5% off British Beers Posted by Andrew Chapman, 7:26am 23/04/2008. St. George's Day, a day to be proud to be English... The Scots Welsh and Irish are all proud to celebrate their national Saints Days. Why are the English seemingly less so? I say stand up and be proud to be English today!
There are no Dragons to be slain today ... but to celebrate England's national day we have slashed the prices from two of our favourite British brewers... 5% off Lovibonds beers and also beers from Chiltern Brewery. Prices stay reduced for 72 hours only, so hurry to take advantage NOW if you want to try some great local beers AND Save money! St. George's day Lovibonds beer and Chiltern Brewery promo ends 9am Saturday 26.04.08 And it looks like one of our local Oxfordshire pubs (Fox and Hounds in Uffington) is getting in on the act - see this story I just saw in our local paper The Oxford Mail. It's only a hop over White Horse Hill from our home in Wantage to get there, so perhaps I'll pop in later and see what they're up to - apparently there is going to be a feast, and Morris Dancing too. Uffington is supposed to be where St. George slayed the Dragon (the bare patch on the hill opposite is supposed to be where the dragon's blood ensured that no grass would grow, according to local folklore). And I'll let you know if I find any Dragons... ^ Back to top
