Petitioners demand Bushy's return

Online fans slam Hooded Ram's win

A petition calling on Douglas Council to reverse its decision over the TT beer tent has reached 200 signatures.

It was revealed on Tuesday that Bushy's Brewery has lost its longstanding contract to run the site on the Bottleneck Car Park, after a competitive tender process.

Douglas-based brewers Hooded Ram will now run the tent until 2021.

There's been considerable online backlash at the decision, with many saying the Bushy's tent is a 'TT fixture', and others claiming the brewery has been 'taken advantage of' by councillors.
