How did Robert Plant end up at a Wolverhampton pub pouring pints for footie fans? Well it's quite funny really...

The Led Zeppelin frontman joined fans at The Leaping Wolf on Monday night as the Wolves v Nottingham Forest match kicked off. 

Although the game left a bad taste in fans' mouths, it was soon washed away by a pint poured by the legend himself. 

He was pictured pointing to the Neck Oil tap, a product of Beavertown Brewery of which Robert's son Logan Plant is the CEO and founder.

Marketing manager of the pub, Daniel Morris, spoke to the Express & Star about how the Kidderminster-born musician ended up behind the bar. 

It all started when the Wolves Vice President was on his way to the match. 

"He has a fob to get him into the Molineux car park, but it had run out of battery," Daniel laughed. "So he drove up to our pub car park and asked Nathan, the manager, if he could use it. 

"Nathan said he could park there for free - we usually charge on match days - on one condition, that he comes into the pub after the game and pours a pint." 

Robert is said to have replied 'most definitely' and stuck to his word. 

"He came back after the match," Daniel continued. "Everyone knew he would and were jumping for joy. He was signing autographs, taking photos with everyone. When he was pouring the pints it was our busiest time, and the whole room had their phones out recording - they are all rock fans and Wolves fans so they were really happy."

Daniel said his 68-year-old mum, who works in the kitchen, went to one of Robert Plant's first ever gigs and managed to have a special moment with him on Monday. 

"She was really busy getting the meals out but she managed to get a quick hug from him, which was great," Daniel said. 

"He said he loved our pub and that it looks amazing now compared to a few years ago, so that was really nice to hear."
