AN illuminated beer bus has rolled into the car park of Ramsbottom's Hare and Hounds pub as the hostelry holds its annual festival.
It is the second year mine hosts Andy and Lyn Grant have organised the event.
Andy said: "We have more than 80 real ales this year plus four real ciders, so the event will be bigger and better than ever."
One of the main attractions was to be the first brew from the recently established Ramsbottom Brewery. However, due to production delays, the new ale produced by Paul Robinson doesn't look like it will be on stream before the festival closes on Sunday.
Andy said: "Even if we don't get the brew for this festival we look forward to selling it in future."
The pub in Bolton Road West will feature live bands with local outfit Cola Moon making an appearance on Sunday night.
