This year you'll be
able to enjoy the Carousel, the Tunnel of Love and Wall of Death without
taking your feet off the ground.
These are just some of the new local brews at the Nottingham Beer
Festival. |

The biggest bar in town opens its doors to the public
on Thursday, 17th October at the Victoria Leisure Centre, Sneinton.
They will remain open until Sunday, 20th October.
There will be over 300 real ales, ciders and country wines.
This year, for the first time ever there will be a number of beers
in the free trade three weeks prior to the event in the form of the
Goose Fair collection.
These beers are to be brewed especially for the Goose Fair by local
brewers, all of which will be on sale at the festival at our Goose
Fair bar.
Richard Studeny, Chairman of Nottingham CAMRA said:
"Nottingham CAMRA has always had an annual beer festival and
Goose Fair in autumn聟 so I thought we would link the two together.聰
The Goose Fair collection include:
Alcazar 聳 Carousel
Belvoir 聳 Twister
Brewster's 聳 Tunnel of Love
Broadstone 聳 Wall of Death
Castle Rock 聳 Bouncy Castle
Caythorpe 聳 Old Organ
Holland 聳 Waltzer

There will around 160 volunteers working in the two halls capable
of holding more than 1400 people.
