Tickets are up for sale for this year's Great British Beer Festival and it would be great to see if we could get a dMw gathering for this one.  

Tickets - £10 (non-member) or £8 (CAMRA member).   Includes a free program.
Venue: Olympia, London
Date: 13th-17th August 2013 (opens 12pm each day I think).


Anyone interested in meeting up and exploring the beers, ciders & perries?

Which day would be best?  Personally I'd avoid the Tuesday (not all beers have been put out) & the Saturday (quite a few of the popular beers have sold out), so would prefer to go on the Wedsday, Thursday or Friday sessions.  

If you're interested then place a vote for the days you could make and we'll see if we can get a group  of us together. :thumbsup:

Sounds like a plan. It's far enough away that any day works for me.

Whatever's gone wrong it's not my fault.

Not been to this one before so would love to go. Friday would be best for me, but as it's a few months off, any day would be ok.

I'm interested...

Friday would be best, I don't fancy trying to get into work from London.

Sounds like a chuckle and beer festivals are always fun. I would agree with Friday being the better day as it leaves the weekend to recover should to many beers be tasted :blink: will book it off with work once we know the day and if Friday only need to book the one day :D.

Sounds like a good idea.

Think I can currently make any of the weekdays: wed or Thu means a slow day at work but hopefully recovered enough to enjoy Saturday too; or means not impacting work but needing to spend Saturday recovering... Priorities :-)

Yup I would be more than up for it, and Friday would also be the best for me.

Ok it seems like the Friday is already starting to get a clear lead, so let's plan for that day.    I'll close this thread and open an 'attending' thread for the Friday.

New thread to book is here:
