Anyone going? Anyone thinking of going?

Yes it'll be full of questionably dressed men with curiously large bellies and hilarious beards, but there's over 500 beers to be trying and all day to do it.

I do remember last year when a rather attractive female friend of mine went to this thing - at Earl's Court, is it not?. How queer.

Last year I went and it was a great time. The jellied eel may not have been the wisest choice of snack, but the beer was good.

A bit more information:

It's at Earls Court Exhibition Centre, about £8 to get in, then you buy a glass for about £3 then drink as much of as many beers as you feel like. Prices aren't that cheap, about £3 ish a pint, but I'd recommend you go for halfs or thirds so you can try more out.

As well as the jellied eels there's pies, burgers, biltong, pork scratchings and plenty other stuff I've no doubt forgotten.

I usually go on the Friday as they run out of half the stuff on the Saturday.
