Harlequins supporters were treated to an early Christmas present on Tuesday night as they were invited to enjoy a pint of Greene King IPA with their idols.

Ugo Monye, Tani Fuga and club-captain Will Skinner hosted a Q&A session for over 40 lucky fans at The Old Goat pub in Twickenham.

With a busy fixture schedule over the Christmas and New Year period, this was the perfect chance for supporters to find out how the team is feeling as they look towards 2010.

With only one defeat in their last six Premiership outings, morale in the camp is high. Quins will be looking to extend this run of good form when they take on London Wasps at Twickenham in The Big Game 2 on Sunday 27th December.

Looking ahead to the game at rugby HQ, Will Skinner emphasised the current mentality of the team, “The atmosphere is good, the boys are enjoying their rugby and I think it’s a really positive thing at the moment”.

The evening, like the beer, went down well with supporters and players alike. Ugo Monye commented on the club’s Official Beer, “There is a great fit between Harlequins and Greene King IPA with a good amount of synergy between the two – on top of which it’s got a really good taste”.
