Re: Clermont Away
Will be interesting to see how Tigers and Saints respond. Would love to see Connacht get one over Wasps but I cant see that happening unfortunately

Re: Clermont Away
Currently sitting in this bar. The Affligem Christmas beer is rather tasty and they have a fair range of food. Can't miss the place as its next to the cathedral at the top (vertically) of the town and bang next to the Christmas market.Neill_M wrote:Café Pascal in the Place De La Victoire is the main rugby pub/meeting place. Usually shows all the other games on the tv etc. It is open on Sundays. There is also the Still, don't know what it is like as last time as it was a Sunday when we went there and it was shut (game previous day). The Place de la Victoire has a Christmas Market running most of December.
, Connacht and are all on tv on the Saturday in round 4.

A Belgian Christmas ale - sounds good, is probably very strong mind, not one to rush..waggonsroll wrote:Currently sitting in this bar.

Re: Clermont Away
They have 4 Affligem beers on tap with edelweiss, Fischer, Murphy's red and Guinness. They also have Strongbow. In bottle there are 3/4 Belgians together with some typical French ones- Heineken, Pelforth and Desperados. There are some other bars with craft type beer. I'm off to explore and will report back.Neill_M wrote:A Belgian Christmas ale - sounds good, is probably very strong mind, not one to rush..waggonsroll wrote:Currently sitting in this bar.

Re: Clermont Away
You are all warmly welcolme in Clermont.
Ulsterfans have been very nice with us (particulary me...) in Belfast.
Impossible to pay just one beer, all offered!
The public in stade Michelin is hot, but everybody here knows how you've been with us, so is pleased to see you again in Clermont.
A walk all together could occured from Place de Jaude to the stadium.
Let's keep in touch.

Re: Clermont Away
What do you want to know?
City center is "Place de Jaude", nice for shopping.
Have a look just nearby, at the cathedral made of volcanic stone.
Pubs are in cathedral's quarter (like in Belfast...)
The rugby area is around the Stade Michelin, take the tram to go there.
If you have time, the tire firm Michelin is just behind, you can visit it.
