CAMRA real ale pub trail

CAMRA real ale pub trail

No 6 on the real ale trail

As a free house, we are lucky to be able to select our own ales.  We have built good working relationships with our suppliers.  Butcombe Brewery, Quantock, Gloucester Ales, Bath Ales, Otter Ales, On The Level. Each week we introduce a new ale to allow all who drink with us an opportunity to sample a new ale.  We are very proud of the ales we have delivered so far, and look forward to working with other brewers.
We are proud to have been chosen to be part of CAMRA's real ale trail this year. If you haven't been to us yet, grab your passport and pop in to try one of our real ales and get yourself another stamp.

It's been a while since we've posted a line up of our ales, so it's about time we start back up again, so you lovely lot can see the fine ales from fine producers that we have on the taps!! Offerings from Butcombe Brewing Co., Exmoor Ales, and Glastonbury Ales this week.

It’s that time of year when Dunster goes into hibernation, the tourists vanish, and even the village pigeons seem to be on annual leave. So, while things are a bit quieter, we’re temporarily adjusting our bar and food opening times.  But fear not — we haven’t shut ourselves in the cellar with a barrel of cider. We’re still very much here, still cooking, still pouring, and still ready to welcome you on the days we’re open. Think of it as The Stag’s Head having a gentle winter stretch… not a full nap. Once the quiet spell passes and the village wakes up again, we’ll be back to longer hours and more days, bright‑eyed and bushy‑tailed. Thank you for sticking with us — your support keeps this lovely old pub alive (and stops us talking to the furniture).
