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.
