206 beers, plus Cider, Perry and country wines

And they are in alpha and numerical order plus colour code for three different types of beers

Despite the piss poor weather the marque had plenty of pepole and some were even sitting outside under the trees

We were not even supossed to go tonight (long weekend away at Laon Historique, France) but Mrs. Beer took us at break-neck speed

Meet some torturer thinking about selling a V8S biglaugh, but also some nice folk, strangers happy to compare tastings and their beers

Always the same, one weekend but with two or three events to go to !!

I stuck to mainly local beers (long story) but this event is well worth a visit or two for those that can

with 206 i bet there was a great home grown choice, were Potbelly well represented?
if i were nearer i'd think about looking in definetely, i missed the big Cambridge one that happened last weekend....

glad to hear you had a good evenings session Nigel! drink
