There are no trains on Saturday to/from Troon, so why not come along to the beer festival in Troon Concert Hall where we've got real ales, ciders, gin, wine and prosecco, along with live music. Full details on our website at https://t.co/yu8HcmYvJg

This year we'll have 30 real ciders and perries available at the festival, the largest selection ever, with 3 ciders from our local producer Ayrshire Riviera Cider, and a special Festival Black Apple cider from Monkey House Cider. #CiderMonth. #troonbeer https://t.co/tIAKEXy6Ra
