The other link is dead, it seems a shame that there are so many people with a passion for the same thing. Brewing and that there are so few events to share it at .... I went to a national model aircraft show last year... I have no interest in models one bit but I couldn't help but think wouldn't this be great if the focus was home brewing!

National CBA comp being planned in Bristol on Sept 15th - details to come here soon.

Keep an eye for the next THBF Spring Thing as well if you;re a member of THBF forum (that's a cracking little event)

I thought they would have a decent beer tent but apparently the two don't mix very well...

Are you an NCBA member? There's some good events through that group including getting together to brew (at UnclePumbles) and other meet ups across 'the north'.

UnclePumble, Aleman, Me, TheMumbler, Leeds Brew and a whole bunch of other on here are all members...
