UK: The Great British Beer Festival to choose the Champion Beer of Britain
The Great British Beer Festival from August 1st to August 5th will this year be bigger than ever before as it moves from London's Olympia to Earls Court, CAMRA posted June 02.
A handpicked selection of more than 700 different real ales, ciders, perries, and bottled beers will be available at the festival - confirming Earl's Court as the new home of British beer.
CAMRA Chief Executive Mike Benner said: “More than 47,000 people came to the 2005 Great British Beer Festival and because of the new larger venue we are looking forward to welcoming even more visitors this year.
“The Great British Beer Festival is the best thing about the summer for beer enthusiasts. But even if you have never tried real ale before it is the perfect place to meet up with friends, come for a drink with colleagues after work, or simply soak up some Great British hospitality.”
Mike Benner added: “This Great British Beer Festival is shaping up to be bigger and better than ever before. With so much to see, do - and of course, taste - a trip to Earls Court in August will be a terrific experience.”
The Trade Session takes place on the first day of the Great British Beer Festival on August 1st, and runs from 12 noon-5pm. Attendees will be the first to hear the judges' choice for the 2006 Champion Beer of Britain.
