Great British Beer Festival August 2006

Went to GBBF06 which this year for the first time was held at Earls Court. It was very big, there were hundreds of beers and I got to take home a 1/3 pint glass.

I attended on several days, which ones have now faded from my memory, but I was definitely there on the Saturday as I participated in the CAMRA Young Members Bar Crawl. Not for the faint-hearted, that's all I'm saying.

My beer of the festival was Nethergate's Augustinian Ale which was so delicious I think it's a serious contender for MY FAVOURITE BEER EVER. Wow. They had another Nethergate beer on too and that was also excellent.

I sampled over 60 beers in the few days I was there but I won't bore you with all the others.
