APRIL
MARCH
We had hoped that things would not take a turn for the worse and that we could support the hospitality trade during some hard times. Sadly, things turned out much worse and we closed down all social events that entail leaving the house or anything that would entail close contact.
We wish all our members, and everyone everywhere, safe lives.
BFTWNI LUNCH & ALES
Saturday, 14th. Noon (ish)
The Mermaid Bar - 5-7 Wilson's Court, (off High Street) Belfast
The John Hewitt for good cask ales.
Start off with a good bit of excellent pub grub, then a pleasant walk to a nearby cask ale house.
We had intended our occasional Sunday Brunch and a planned visit to Niall at Yardsman. These are put on hold until we can safely organise.

BEERS IN THE BREWERY
Hilden & Farmageddon at The Hilden Taproom
BEERS BY TRAIN
The Central Bar, Carrickfergus for food, ales, and admire the scenery of Belfast Lough.

TRYANUARY
ERRIGLE INN LUNCH & CASK ALES!
Lunch at the Errigle Inn and a few excellent cask ales.
BFTWNI POTY
Actually, we delayed the event so that we could host it as part of Tryanuary. The Northern Lights is managed by Sinead, someone who is very fervent when it comes to quality, staff knowledge and support. The range of craft, some cask, excellent bar snack, great staff, makes it a worthwhile winner this year.

BELFAST PUB CRAWL
Third & final of the BFTWNI Belfast Pub Crawls in support of Tryanuary.
