Hollywood actor to open Beer and Cider Festival

by isleofman.com 26th March 2018

Hollywood actor John Rhys-Davies will be the star guest at this year's Isle of Man Beer and Cider Festival.

The CAMRA run event, which is now in its 7th year, will take place at the Villa Marina between April 12th and 14th.

150 real ales will be on offer - last year 3,000 people visited the festival to sample real ales, ciders, perries and fruit wines.

Rhys-Davies, whose films include the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Indiana Jones and James Bond, will arrive by horse tram carrying a flask of Festival Ale.

That ale, specially brewed by Bushey's Brewery, will support this year’s chosen cause The Manx Wildlife Trust.

This year there will be a dedicated wildlife themed bar – with all beers having names associated with wildlife and their habitats.

There’ll also be a bar dedicated to beers and ciders brewed in Northern Ireland as well as feature beers which are brewed using old recipes – some of them dating back to Victorian times.
