SOLD ~ Newton & Ridley Beer and Beer Mats

Joe Manley has donated 3 Cans of Newton & Ridley Beer and a number of Newton and Ridley Beer Mats as one of the Lots for our Charity Auction!

Ever wondered why the residents of Coronation Street spend so much time in the Rovers?
We think that the secret must be the special ale brewed by that world famous brewery
Newton & Ridley.

Could this beer be the reason why:

• Liam is so smooth
• Jack is irresistible to women over a certain age
• Tony makes Ricky Hatton look soft
• Carla oozes sweetness
• Roy carries his shopping bag with him everywhere
• Liz plays hard to get
• Michelle loves Steve
• Joe Manley plays golf so well?

To find the answers to these and other mysteries you need to sample the delights of the Newton & Ridley Brewery. If ale is not your thing you can always get the Rover's Look for your home with these rare Newton & Ridley beermats!
