Experience Real

 

Real , a new way to enjoy- Real Ale, Real Cider and Real Events. Real  offers you the opportunity to enjoy a new age experience in beer and cider festivals, accompanied with Live music, Real food and even Real soft drinks. We can simply supply you the products for your festival, or we can manage the whole thing for you, from start to finish! Simply tailored to how you like it!

 

This new venture has been thought up by David Hemstock and Michelle Tuddenham, of Raw Brewery, and John and Kathy Chadwick, of The Arkwright Arms. John and Kathy have a long lasting history of Beer Festival organisation, in their own pub and also with help for the Chesterfield Beer Festival. Their pub has won numerous CAMRA awards for both beer and cider. David and Michelle started their brewing adventure around a year ago, with a countrywide success and are already award winners. We are all sure that we can work well together in ensuring your Beer, Cider, Music Festival will be a success. Real doesn't just sell you beer, we provide you with an experience.
