Thursday last to yesterday SWMBOD and I were camping at the Cambridge Folk Festival, Cherry Hinton Hall Park.
Headliners were:
Clannad's farewell session, Suzanne Vega, Billy Bragg, Seasick Steve, and lots of new to us World traditional and fusion live music.
Oh, beer and lots of it,
from the Otter Brewery range, Miltonian Brewery the Justinian,
and the Moonshine brewery Cambridge Pale Ale.
No point photographing, as glass was banned inside the performance arena so our beer was drunk from our pewter tankards. (I don't like plastic, even if it is the more substantial reusable sort).
Just realised this bar menu doesn't include half the real ales available at the other main bar. It was just the menu of the first filling of the mini cask bar I came across.
Others available were :
Otter Ale
Justinian
Moonshine.
I have a 4 pint carry cask with pressure release cap.
So any beer, 4 pints for £21.
£5.25 a pint is worlds cheaper than many captive audience music festival bar prices I could mention.
There was even a talk in the main beer marquee by Patrick from the Otter Brewery on Sat. morning.
With a blindfold free beer comparison tasting challenge to finish.
What a good start to a day that was.
And no 'cough' developed yet! Despite the crowded audience at times.
They were very airy main stage type marquees though.
