MALTON brewers will take over a York pub's bar this week, to showcase their beer range.

Bad Seed Brewery, which opened last year, and Brass Castle Brewery, which moved to Malton from Pocklington, are holding the special event at The Rook and Gaskill in Lawrence Street on Wednesday evening (April 16).

Brass Castle will also hold a "meet the brewer" event at the new real ale club at The White Swan in Thornton le Clay, on Wednesday 28 May, at 7.30pm.

Advance tickets for that event are £10, which includes a pie and pea supper. Phone 01653 618286 to reserve a place.
