Chester pub to host Ossett Brewery tap takeover this Bank Holiday weekend
By Dherran Titherington 28th Aug 2026
A Chester city centre pub is set to host an Ossett Brewery tap takeover this Bank Holiday weekend.
The Deva Tap will serve five cask ales and five kegs from the Yorkshire-based independent brewery, alongside its usual beer selection, over the next few days.
Founded more than 25 years ago, Ossett Brewery describes itself as a "new fashioned, progressive brewery with real heritage", combining modern brewing with a strong independent identity.
The independent brewery is particularly known for its White Rat pale ale, a 4% hoppy beer first launched in 2011.
It has since developed the wider Rat range, including King Rat, Fat Rat and Lab Rat, reflecting the brewery's focus on experimentation and hop-forward beers.

The Bank Holiday takeover, running until 6pm on Bank Holiday Monday, will give customers the opportunity to sample a wider selection of Ossett beers across both cask and keg.
A beer raffle will also run throughout the weekend, with prizes including an Ossett Brewery beer hamper, Ossett Brewery polo shirts and a Titanic Brewery Bar in a Box. The draw will take place at 3pm on Monday.
The Deva Tap will also be showing live football through to Monday, while food will be available at selected times during the Bank Holiday weekend.
Food will be served from 3pm to 8.30pm on Friday, 12pm to 8.30pm on Saturday, and 12pm to 4.30pm on Sunday, with home-cooked Sunday roasts available on Sunday.
