Great British Beer Festival 2016
This was our fourth year in a row visiting the biggest and best beer festival in the country and we weren’t disappointed. Like previous years we chose to do it over two days so we could really do the festival justice. For a more in-depth review you can listen to our podcasts here. Below is a slideshow of pictures for your perusal.
