    Waded through Brewdog's tedious blog. One question, what is a Keykeg, and is it any better than a decent cask, lovingly maintained by a well trained and motivated cellarman or landlord/lady?

    The GBBF is always to big and busy for my liking. I would go if there was some decent music but from what has been announced, it doesn't look too exciting so I'll probably be giving a miss again this year.

    Who needs GBBF when you have Reading Beer Fest 30 mins away from Paddington?

    Trade afternoon is best if you can wangle some tickets. Very civilised until the great unwashed are let in around 5PM. Lots of pubs and clubs never apply - if they did there's be about 100,000 people there - and brewery reps get tickets too - so worth enquiring of a friendly landlord/club secretary.

    We are going on trade day before 5pm. Got my advance train tickets as soon as we could, and Birmingham to Euston £12.55 and Euston to Birmingham £4.95. I'm happy with that. Just need to sort the underground or buses out.
