Risky Business

At Glastonbury 2008 the Workers Beer Company had a couple of guest servers, as part of their Channel 4 documentary Risky Business Neil Morrissey and Richard Fox had started a micro brewery and wanted to test their brewing skills by selling their Morrissey Fox Ale in the Red Flag Real Ale tent.

There was not primadonna stuff here the boys camped down in the Workers Beer Company Village and experienced what it was like to be a volunteer server. In the bar they were fully briefed by Red Flag veteren Keith Holton on licensing and health and safety. 

Whilst the 3 part series, aired in October, primarily dealt with the boys difficulties in setting up a brewery and actually brewing ale, the final scenes where of their experience in Glastonbury where their ale sold very well, helped a little by the guest servers!
