Fresh from phenomenal success with its first real ale festival, the Isle of Man has launched a Rail Ale guide to recommended real ale pubs within easy reach of its heritage railways.
The Department of Community, Culture and Leisure’s Rail Ale leaflet is aimed at both residents and visitors.
As well as a description about each pub, the leaflet contains useful information such as disabled access, contact numbers, directions and availability of food, as well as what real ales are available.
Isle of Man Railways worked closely with CAMRA and two breweries, Bushy’s and Heron and Brearley, to produce it.
Copies of the leaflet are available from railway stations and the Welcome Centre at Douglas Sea Terminal, or you can email railways@giv.im
