Hi all, and a great festival it is turning out to be.

However, does anyone know when the beer of the festival is announced, and how it is decided on. Who makes the choice and actually votes.

I have spoken to a few CAMRA members who all seem rather vague on this, and were over the last few years at the Newcastle festivals I asked them about this.

Cheers for now, enjoy.
Northern Brewer.

I take it from the number of views, but lack of answers, no one really knows.
Cheers, Northern Brewer.

Hi
Sorry too busy clearing up after another sucessful festival!
The Beer of the Festival is chosen by the staff who work at the festival

This year's results are as follows

1st Allendale Adder Lager
2nd Thornbridge Jaipur IPA

Joint 5th Hadrian & Border Ouseburn Porter
Brown Cow Captain Oates Dark Mild
Lees Moonraker

And Cider / Perry of the festival was?

Cider was Incendery Device

Don't know where it is from as it is not in the programme

Chris - perhaps you could post the full details

Thanks

The cider is from a small cider producer in the Wirral called Potters. The Incendiary Device is his 7.0% medium dry version and is marketed under the banner of Merseycider.
His other ciders are called Bombsite and Stretchercase.

Cheers
