Lists will be posted on the branch website this weekend. I will update the forum when I have updated the website.

You all know it is worth coming to the festival whatever beers are available!!!

Festival was spot on, got there for 1535 on friday afternoon and no QUEING ;-) Plenty of selection was on ;-) However as the evening progressed i.e from 18.00 the beers started 'dropping like flies'.

Getting there earlier this year did pay off however are there any plans at all to look at alternative venues as space does seem at a premium now ;-) I know this has been a sticky subject in the past :-(

Regards
Andy

Andy,

If you can find a venue which holds more people at about the same cost please let me know as all venues looked at have been far to expensive so far.
