TWO pubs in Redditch will each be serving a number of speciality beers from the USA, alongside beers from the UK, during a special 16-day festival.

The US craft beers on offer at The Rising Sun in Alcester Street and The Royal Enfield in Unicorn Hill, have been sourced from brewers from California, Georgia, Massachusetts and Oregon.

They include a pumpkin beer, a peppercorn beer, an organic beer and even a coffee stout.

They will complement up to 35 beers from the UK.

The Rising Sun manager, Helen Henderson, said: "We are thrilled to be serving such a fantastic selection of beers from the USA and the UK.

"The festival will be the perfect way for real ale enthusiasts to enjoy a range of excellent beers."

The festival runs from Wednesday, October 16 until Thursday, October 31.
