AN EDEN ale producer has created a special tipple in honour of the annual Appleby Horse Fair.

Appleby Brewery owner and chief brewer Fred Mills has whipped up a light golden summer ale to commemorate fair which begins today (June 4).

He said: "You can enjoy the horse fair in a different way this year, without even having to leave the pub or wash your horse in the river."
