With less than two weeks to go until the start of the new Aviva Premiership season, Harlequins fans are already being given something to celebrate, with the launch of the 2010/11 Harlequins Supporter Pub Network.
A home away from home, the nine pubs in and around Twickenham and South West London are the perfect place for fans looking to support their team in style.
With a match day atmosphere at any time throughout the season, the pubs offer Quins supporters a unique chance to soak up the pre- or post-match banter, celebrate their favourite team with fellow fans, watch a game on TV, or simply celebrate their love of rugby, all over a pint of Greene King IPA, the nations’ favourite cask ale.
Greene King IPA is once again the Official Beer of Harlequins for the 2010/11 season and is helping fans get behind their favourite team by creating the perfect match day venue. Lucky fans will also be in with a chance to enjoy a fixture at The Stoop first-hand, with Greene King IPA providing all nine pubs with a selection of tickets for home games that can be won by purchasing a pint of the team’s official beer.
Throughout the course of the season, Quins fans will also have the opportunity to win free pints of Greene King IPA, which they will be able to redeem and enjoy in any of the pubs in the network. Followers should look out for special vouchers and competitions in the matchday programmes and at www.quins.co.uk.
Greene King IPA marketing manager, Keith Ironside said, “We are delighted to be able to create a match day environment for Quins’ loyal followers at each of the nine pubs in this year’s Official Harlequins Supporters’ Pub Network.
"We hope to see fans soaking up the pre-match atmosphere before, during and after home games, while enjoying a pint of Greene King IPA with friends and fellow Harlequins fans.”
