My first visit to this 03rd ber festival. The large rear garden soon filled up to take advantage of the good weather and a very good selection of ales and ciders were all served in tip top condition. After a busy previous two days there was a beer re-order to satisfy demand.

Website.

The pub is found in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, CM23 2NG.

An old established Royal British Legion Club, circa 1882, located in Windhill, just off the Market Place. This 3rd annual beer festival was held in the extensive garden area of the club, with a marquee, 25+ ales and ciders on stillage, a barbecue area, tombola and local musicians.

We have visited this pub once, seen 13 different beers and tried them all.
