Went to the Chorlton festival on Friday. It had loads of people - far more than we could accommodate.  It was there last year that I thought: "we can do this". They have now been running for 4 years. It is clear that we have to scope our event correctly and make sure that we have enough beer.

....& just in from th e railway in stockport opposite pel centre..  some excellent beers there especially the pictish gold and pennine floral dance ...  to mention but two.. !! 
keep the good beer reports coming in as th efinal list of the ales at the festival will be confirmed by end of Sept.
It was great to see Robin W from CAMRA at the Railway and hear his advice and experience from other beer fests...  esp re the set up and keeping of the beers (peg and tapping etc ) 
keep up the chat !!! and sampling over the summer and take a few flyers with you wherever you get too  home or abroad!!

yes ideeeddee    the issue may be about capacity ;  aswell as decent beer of course,   I suggest we takeevery opportunity to provide only the very best of beers on merit , not name, only .  It can be subjective but  forum to nominate decent beers with notes is a good starting point.  I have recently enjoyed good 3 rivers beer and Hawksehead gold/  but we need more views on this .  So if you have hAD  A DECENT  p[int in th eManchester locality of a local beer tellus all about it.  or if you've had an excursion to LaklAND  & have sampled a good pint let us know  ...     Hesket New Market /  Anyone tried that recently/
