In Burton tonight (with instructions to take a decent coat "cause it will rain" - "no - be OK"!) primarily to attend the 8th Beer Festival with Bangers at the Burton Bridge. Although fairly quiet when i arrived it soon became quite busy. the festival was housed in a small marquee at the rear and although the normal beers were available in the bars I decided to remain in the festival itself. As the name suggests there were also sausages available and the Beef and Horseradish make an excellent accomplishment.
Beers samples here were:
- Cheddar Ales - George Best
- Peakstones Rock - Black Hole (a dark bitter brewed with chocolate malt)
- Dancing Duck - Amberillo (Amerillo hops I guess - best beer of the evening for me!)
- Church End - Shreddies
- Sarah Hughes - Dark Ruby (which had about run out)
By now it was getting busy and difficult to get to the bar so I decided to head into the now very wet evening and across to the Coopers for
- Titanic - Cappuchino Stout
- Middle Earth - Fellowship
Finally over to the Devonshire for
Burton Bridge Damson Porter
