Giving it a miss this year. Body is a temple, etc, etc.

I'll be there, I'll be there, whenever you need me, I'll be there

You and I must make a pact, we must bring salvation back

Where there is beer, I'll be there

I like real ale more than most but..

 

It's become like some massively poor imitation of Oktoberfest, but in Bolton.

 

Too many attitudes/Bradshawgaters

 

Hence not really arsed one way or the other

FGS i'm sorry ok, don't let it get you depressed. Tell you what i'll make it up to you, you can have my ticket stub for Wigan then you can go to Swansea for free. :rofl: :rofl: But there again the Flying Flute a lot closer.

I think i'm going. How's it work? Tokens and queue up? How much etc?

last time i went, you bought your tokens at the cash for tokens desk, and paid with your tokens. usual prices for pints. wait until you get someone who cant handle it, theyve bought too many tokens so theyre worthless outside the tent so they give them away. free beer later on.

Handy hint for any beer festival virgins...

 

Once you've paid your entrance, you;ll get your wristband and a choice of a pint pot, or half pint. Obviously get yourself a pint pot.

 

However, when you get your drinks only ever ask for a half. You'll pretty much always get about 3/4 of a pint.

plus, if you get a shit un, it doesnt last as long.

Don't forget that you always have to finish with a really strong Belgian super-strength lager that tastes like tar.

 

Last 2 years I think we have finished on Kwak.

 

I'm hoping Hazzy can clarify!

Went last night, was on some revolting Ciders most of the night, most from 6.5% to 7.5%.

 

Sore head this morning.

 

Spotted Brixton and Fester supping whilst I was there. :drinks:

Only ever had that once, never again.

Just been informed that the beer festival is our plan of action this evening. Hope to see some badge wearing wanderersways regulars in attendance.

See you all later!
