Drinks

Drink % Brewery
Carling 4.0 Molson Coors

The masterful blend that balances depth of flavour with the thirst quenching refreshment of the UK’s no.1 lager

Tasting Notes: 
Eagle IPA 3.6 The Eagle Brewery

Made from natural mineral water from our own well, this ale has been a firm favourite around Bedford over two centuries.

Tasting Notes: 
Estrella Damm 4.6 S.A. Damm

Estrella Damm is a Mediterranean beer, made with malt, rice and hop, brewed with 100% natural ingredients according to the original recipe from 1876

Tasting Notes: A light malty aroma on the nose with a little spice drifting through slowly.
Foster's 3.4 Heineken

Foster's is the ultimate ice-cold refreshment. Its balance of subtle fruitiness and vanilla is ideal for the sweeter-toothed lager lover. The perfect session beer to enjoy with mates.

Tasting Notes: A light-coloured lager style, it presents full malt character with a balanced clean hop bitterness. Combined with a slightly hoppy, but yeasty/malty nose, Foster's lager is a full bodied beer with excellent drinkability.
Ghost Ship 4.1 Adnams

Ghost Ship is inspired by one of Adnams’ most haunted pubs in one of the UK’s most haunted villages, the Bell at Walberswick.It's a Pale Ale with a pithy bitterness and a malty backbone.

Tasting Notes: This is a Pale Ale with a pithy bitterness and a malty backbone. Brewed with a selection of malts – Pale Ale, Rye Crystal and Cara – Adnams use Citra and a blend of other American hop varieties to create some great citrus flavours
Guinness Draught 4.2 Guinness

One of the world's best-loved beers, with sweet smelling aromas of coffee and malt, from the first velvety sip to the last, lingering drop, every deep-dark satisfying mouthful in between is pure beauty… pure Guinness.

Tasting Notes: Smoothly balanced with bitter, sweet, roasted notes
John Smiths Bitter 3.8 John Smith's Brewery

Bronze and amber colouring with a malt and fruity smell.

Tasting Notes: Malt, hop bitterness, a full body with lasting aftertaste. John Smith’s bitter, which is still going strong, is a malty, bitter sweet ale with a slight fruitiness and a bitter aftertaste – we probably took the words right out of your mouth.
Madrí Excepcional 4.6 Molson Coors

Full of flavour and aroma with a light golden colour. Crisp, clean and refreshing, Madri Excepcional has a smooth, well-rounded taste profile with a short, bitter finish.

Tasting Notes: 
Strongbow 4.5 Heineken

Strongbow gets its distinctive flavour and cut-through refreshment through the unique blends of bittersweet British cider apples from our Herefordshire orchards.

Tasting Notes: The cider is made from a blend of bittersweet cider and culinary apples making it a well-rounded, balanced cider with a good mix of fresh apples and cidery flavour

Today

Pakistan v England

Programme starts at 09:00

Coverage of the fourth match in the ODI Tri-Series, which takes place at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Pakistan. England's last two one-dayers at this venue saw them lose to both Australia and Afghanistan in last year's ICC Champions Trophy, and they will be hoping for a better performance this time around.

Today

Manchester United v Bournemouth AFC

Programme starts at 14:00

Coverage of the top-flight match at Old Trafford. Both clashes between these teams last season ended in draws, including a 4-4 see-saw stalemate here in December that saw United take the lead three times and the Cherries hold the lead once themselves. Ultimately it was Junior Kroupi who found the final equaliser in the 84th-minute to extend their unbeaten run against the Red Devils to five matches, since extended to six after a 2-2 draw at the Vitality Stadium in March.

Today

Liverpool v Brighton

Programme starts at 14:00

All the action from the Premier League match at Anfield. The Reds defeated Brighton twice here last term, overcoming them 2-0 in the league and 3-0 in the FA Cup, but the Seagulls did gain a measure of revenge with a 2-1 victory at AMEX Stadium later in the campaign.

Today

Crystal Palace v Newcastle United

Programme starts at 14:00

Coverage of the top-flight match from Selhurst Park. Two goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta in the final 10 minutes saw the Eagles overturn a one-goal deficit to earn a 2-1 victory in the corresponding clash last term, denying the Magpies what would have been a first victory here since November 2020.

Today

Hull City v Brentford

Programme starts at 14:00

All the action from the match at MKM Stadium. This is the first time these teams have ever met in the top flight and the last time they faced each other in any competition was in February 2020, when Brentford claimed an emphatic 5-1 victory at this ground in a Championship fixture.

Today

Sunderland v Leeds United

Programme starts at 16:30

All the action from the Premier League match at Stadium of Light. The sides shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw in last season's corresponding fixture, with Leeds' Dominic Calvert-Lewin cancelling out Simon Adingra's opener, and another closely fought encounter is expected this evening.

Today

United States Grand Prix

Programme starts at 20:00

Coverage of the 18th round of the season, which takes place at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. Max Verstappen triumphed here last season to claim his 68th Grand Prix victory overall, and a fourth here in Austin, ahead of Lando Norris who finished second and Charles Leclerc in third.
