Snowdrops at the Lakes

Once again the snowdrops are lovely down at the Lakes. What a great place to walk round at any time of the year, but especially when Spring is starting to wake up the slumbering surroundings.

Bell Inn wins Gold Award

John and Trisha Bellinger, licensees of the Bell Inn at Adderbury, were awarded top honours on Wednesday evening at the Hook Norton Brewery’s ‘Hooky Gold Awards’, held at Eynsham Hall near Witney. The couple were presented with the prestigious David Clarke Memorial Tankard and certificate for the top award of the evening, The Highest Scoring Beautiful Beer Pub.
The couple received their Beautiful Beer Gold Award last year from the British Beer & Pub Association. The award, which is a badge of beer quality, recognises pubs that serve great quality beer - both draught and bottled. Specially trained inspectors carried out a thorough audit of the pub, from the storage of beer in the cellar through to the pouring of the beer behind the bar. To pass the inspection, pubs have to score 85 out of a possible 100 points. Regular inspections are carried out throughout the year to ensure that the quality remains high!
John said, “We pride ourselves on the quality of our beer at the Bell, so it was fantastic when we received the external recognition last year. The Beautiful Beer plaque on the wall tells customers that when they order a beer at the Bell, they can be guaranteed it's a great one. The ability to give our customers a consistently high quality beer experience is central to what the Bell is all about. With the knowledge, passion and commitment to deliver this, we reap the rewards, with motivated staff and satisfied customers. “
“The Hooky Gold Award is the one that all licensees want as it shows that their beer is the best of the best and I am particularly honored to be the first to receive the David Clarke Memorial Tankard in memory of James Clarke’s father, whom I knew from the late 80’s and who introduced me to the ‘Hook Norton Family’!”
