February's beer, coinciding with the opening weekend of rugby union's Six Nations Championship, will be Gale's Swing Low, a 3.8% session bitter.

Following in March will be another Gale's beer, Festival Mild (4.8%) — a particular favourite of the Beer Today editor! Festival Mild is a moreish, premium mild which has won many awards over the years.

Finally, in April, Fuller's India Pale Ale (4.8%) will conclude the festival, the London brewery's interpretation of the iconic Imperial beer style.

John Roberts, managing director of the Fuller's Beer Company, said: "Fuller's seasonal beer festivals are an opportunity for us to showcase some of the wide range of beers in our portfolio.

"Regular Fuller's drinkers will have known about these beers for a while, but quality, crafted ales like ours are increasingly gaining the attention of the general public, who are looking for something above the norm when they reach the bar.

"We're blessed with a brewing team that is able to produce many different beers, all with the same pride and passion, and we hope many new customers will have the chance to experience one or all of these beers in the pub over the coming months.

"With three Six Nations games for England in February, let's hope we can celebrate a hat trick of wins with a pint or two of Gale's Swing Low."

4 Fuller's Spring Beer Festival beers will be available in most Fuller's pubs plus selected free trade outlets. Visit the beers section of www.fullers.co.uk for more information.
