TO celebrate the reopening of indoor hospitality in Wales this week, a local legend has put together a guide of Wrexham’s best pubs
The video features Bootlegger (world-renowned Wrexham FC fan Karl Philips) and Rob Corcoran from 73 Degree Films taking part in a virtual pub crawl, using a giant green screen to appear in pubs all across Wrexham.
73 Degree Films - a local film production company - host the 11-minute video on their Youtube Channel which contains comedy sketches, challenges and quizzes everywhere from The Turf to The Parish.
Rob said: "We wanted to make something to get everyone excited to support their local pub. It's a celebration of these amazing places and we couldn't think of anyone better to do that with than Bootlegger, he's a Wrexham legend."
The idea came about after Karl and Rob met while filming for S4C at Christmas time in Gwersyllt.

73 Degree Films had been making monthly videos for Youtube and wanted to work with pubs in the area for a special project to promote the town centre in time for things to begin opening up.
Rob and Karl's conversation was filmed in Wrexham town centre in early May with support from The Foundry and a cast and crew of local media professionals including Owen Jones, Gareth Roberts, Charlie Williams and Scott Fitzgerald.
Filming inside the pubs took place just after, with everyone excited to be reopening.
From Monday indoor hospitality in Wales has been allowed to reopen, with up to six people from six households allowed to eat or drink together.
73 Degree Films are now preparing for a series of projects taking place over the summer, including more ambitious videos involving the town centre.
