This is the GluePot's first beer festival, and they've got 17 beers (I think, either 16, 17 or 18) beers on, as well as a few ciders.
They've having the beers on from Friday so I'd be surprised if there's much left by Monday but you never know!
I'll be there on Saturday to sensibly sample and make notes like a good CAMRA member...
Edit: just checked and they've got 22 beers, but only 18 on at any one time. 6 ciders and a perry and a pider too. And Pieminister pies. 4,200 pints in stock so might well be some left by Monday!

Christchurch is on Cricklade St and is the church with the spire you can see from all over swindon (not least from the Arkells Stand) and the vicar, Simon Stevenette is the club chaplain....and the beer festival (new last year) is good.

This one isn't the CAMRA run one. Apparently it's a fairly new event held in a church somewhere.
Think it may be in May sometime
If is on cup final day (17-May ?) and it is in the church at the top of Drove road |

Its already been pointed out that it is in Cricklade St. Just down the hill from what used to be the Oddfellows Arms. . . and there was me thinking Christchurch was in Dorset. |

This is the water.
And this is the well.
Drink full and descend.

Went to Gluepot yesterday. Decent beer selection and good pies, worth a visit.
