★★★★ |
| Why did you give this rating: |
Seemed fine to me, a bit of a duplication with burgers however – not sure how feasible it is to have a larger variety at a festival of this scale?… |
| What persuaded you to attend the festival: |
CAMRA member from Leeds, wanted to venture out a little further than my local / usual ones and particularly check out one in Scotland where there’d be more Scottish beers. Plus it’s in Glasgow as well so you can make a few days of your visit and check out other attractions. |
| Are there any improvements we could make: |
I enjoyed it, would come again. Did think not having beers in alphabetical order was quite confusing if you’re not familiar with the geography. Did think it was good having all the Scottish beers together in one place however, also enjoyed the beers from the wood since it’s a rarity and would encourage more of this in future (might attract more of the SPBW crowd!)
Only other thing was social media updates said Thursday session started at 3.30pm which is the time I arrived for (despite previously reading 3pm) and when I got there it had clearly already been open for a little while?
I also found the pre booking online system a bit confusing because when I ordered my ticket there didn’t appear to be a CAMRA members option (unless this was remedied at the festival by you getting extra beer tokens or something upon production of your card?) |

Again go back to free re-entry on consecutive days. .instead of charging nearly full entry fee .As this is a sure way to lose good Camra members going , Especially As Camra folk like and spend to try as many beers as possible in a sensible drinking session.Free readmission on producing your beer glass |

I only tried the pies from the Paisley Pie Co, but there was a good choice of different fillings and they were really tasty. |
| What persuaded you to attend the festival: |
I like to support the event, meet up with friends and try new beers |
| Are there any improvements we could make: |
If you can provide more seating that would be great. I had to leave earlier than planned as I couldn’t stand any longer and couldn’t find a free seat. |

| What persuaded you to attend the festival: |
Attended since 2014 for the good company and variety of beers |
| Are there any improvements we could make: |
Dedicated a subset of kegs to each day as exclusive to that day. This is first time I’ve attended a Saturday and the number of kegs sold out within the first hour of opening was very disappointing and left me feeling short changed compared to attendees of the previous 2 days. |
