By now all Wishfullers will almost certainly have heard that the Three Rivers District Council area has moved to Tier 3 bringing the highest levels of restriction in England.

What does it mean for us at Wishful?

Well, for those of you with a reasonable memory we have been here a couple of times before, so in that sense nothing new!! In essence we will be restricted to off-license sales only – so that’s takeaways only with no drinking on the premises.

Whilst this is obviously somewhat disappointing as we had exciting plans for Christmas and New Year we are very fortunate as we are able to offer

• More than 200 hundred different beers and ciders in bottles and cans from the shelves and FOUR shining, sparkling, jam-packed and frosty fridges

• Six craft beers and traditional ciders on tap along with weekly real ale in cask

• In the cellar waiting to come on tap Deya Steady Rolling Man, Verdant Headband, Vibrant Forest Pupa, The Kernel Export Stout, Bone Machine Garden of Death, plus kegs from Pollys Brew, Left Handed Giant and Red Willow to see us into 2021.

• And all of these are available in FREE one, two and/or four-pint Growlers

• Christmas Six Pack Beer Gift Boxes – take your pick or ask our expert Bar Staff to make the selection for you

• Christmas Beer Vouchers in £5 denominations

• Wonderful Wishful T-Shirts and Whizzo Wishful branded beer glasses in full and half-pint sizes

• And as ever buy any six bottles or cans and get the seventh free gratis on us PLUS returning customers get 10% off all 4-pint Growler refills.

We are open from 12 noon every day (11:00 on Saturdays) and close at 9pm. Please wear a mask or face covering when inside the shop and please remember only two different customers/households in the shop at any one time.

Christmas may well be different this year but good beer is something that knows NO restrictions and as we always say at Wishful… For more Christmas Cheer drink only Good Beer!!

May we wish you all a Wonderful Christmas and a healthy and prosperous New Year.
