Regular Real Ales include Butcombe Bitter, Black Pear (Malvern Hills Brewery), JHB and Ludlow Gold, with an additional guest ale most weekends. Guest beers tend to be drawn from the smaller and relatively local breweries.
Linton Festival®
The Alma also helps sponsor this festival (originally named “Linton Festival of Music and Ale”). The Festival is held each year in the grounds at the rear of the pub over the weekend closest to mid-summer’s day.The festival is very well run by an enthusiastic committee of volunteers. Their efforts have seen the festival go from strength to strength with more famous bands appearing, increased audiences from year to year and more money for local causes from the proceeds. Recent years have seen sell-out audiences of over 1000 visitors. A larger beer tent and token system have combined to keep everything flowing!
