Re: Coventry Beer Festival 27-28 March 2009
A group of us went down to this on Friday night. The venue was way too small as the event has obviously increased in popularity. The beers were really good and my group highlighted the following beers as the best:
Acorn Brewery - White Oak 4.8%
Ballard's Brewery - Wassail 6.0%
Battledown Brewery - Four Kings 7.2% Richard III Plantagenet 4.2%
Church End Brewery - Fuggled Fudge 4.7%
Exe Valley Brewery - Mr Sheppards Crook 4.7%
Gribble Brewery - Pigs Ear 7%
Mayfields Brewery - Auntie Myrtle's 4.5%
Wylam Brewery - Rocket 5.0%
A good night out although not particularly cheap, well done Coventry & North Warks CAMRA

Re: Coventry Beer Festival 27-28 March 2009
I went to this on Friday afternoon. The venue was small and i can imagine Friday night would have been alot more popular.
My favourites were
Battledown - Four Kings 7.2% but was told it was actually 7.3%
Anglo Dutch - Tabatha The Knackered 6%
Blythe Brewery - Johnson's 5.2%
I have to say my favourite out of the lot was North Cotswold Hung Drawn And Portered which was a great Treacle Porter which was 5%
There were a few others i tried and to be honest there wasnt any i thought were bad but the ones ive listed were my personal favourites.
