Our friends at The Ship & Mitre will be bringing their famous beer festival to Sefton Park for our launch weekend (7th and 8th September).
The Ship & Mitre Beer Festival is included in the Liverpool Food & Drink Festival ticket price and will include a staggering 50 real ales, many from across the UK and at least 20 locally produced.
As well as real ale, there will be a choice of 10 fruit ciders, 20 german beers – a mixture of Pilsener, Kolsch, Weissbier & Dunkels and 30 belgian beers – from fruit and wheat beers to blond, brown and abbey beers.
The Ship and Mitre is known to many as Merseyside’s Premier Real Ale pub. It was Liverpool & District CAMRA Pub Of The Year in 2009. The name derives from a combination of two previous names, The Flag Ship and The Mitre. An original 1930′s Art Deco building, the interior has been changed to resemble that of a ship.
The Ship and Mitre serves an excellent range of cask conditioned real ale, imported draught and a wide selection of German and Belgian beers. It is well known amongst CAMRA members and is regularly featured in Merseyale and The Good beer Guide. There are 15 handpumps offering real ales and ciders from microbreweries all over the country. Each brewery only delivers one barrel of each brew, which is why they have three menu boards placed around the pub so you don’t have to walk around looking at all of the pump clips (as some of you still do!) Each of the barrels is cask conditioned and with this and the hard work of the best cellar man ever, the customer receives an excellent pint!
The Ship & Mitre also has a bottle shop in Liverpool City Centre, The Ship In A Bottle, on Whitechapel near the Met Quarter. In the shop you will find bottled ales, ciders and all the weird and wonderful beers you have come to expect from The Ship.
