Not too many there unfortunately. PLASTIC GLASSES - WHAT? Therefore one mark off each beer tried. Entertainment was mixed, but BBQ and Hog Roast went down well outside; pity weather was lousy

The Beer Festival is found in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, DE14 1NG.

First beer festival at the NBC; with a bit of a difference, this is a commercial beer festival which was all about the big boys rather than the microbreweries. Held in a marquee.

We have visited this Beer Festival once, seen 6 different beers and tried them all.
