Birmingham Beer and Cider Festival (Friday 27th October 2017)

It's another favourite feature of the Mercian social meets calendar. It's the beer festival!

http://www.birminghambeerfestival.org.uk/

It runs from Thursday the 26th to Saturday the 28th, but we usually go on a Friday before the best beers run out and when waking up with a hangover the following day isn't an issue, so let's stick with that plan. This year it is in the custard factory which is handy. For the uninitiated it's a pay on the door sort of affair, so there's nothing to book, but it is handy if people sign up on the forum so folk know who to look out for when they arrive.

See you there!

I would prefer a Saturday afternoon as we did last year much easier and cheaper getting a Uber taxi home early evening. I'll go with the flow.

Hi everyone, speaking to folk last night at the photo competition, it seems Friday night is still the majority favourite - apologies that it doesn't suit everyone. There will be a bunch of us there from 6:45pm(-ish). See you there.

Malc and I are meeting up on Saturday about 3.30pm so save us some beer!

Extra hour in bed or drinking on Saturday as clocks go back.

Thankfully the Birmingham v Villa game is on Sunday.

I finish work in town around 5, so if anyone wants to head down earlier let me know.
