A Glass, 7 Tickets and a Pair of Trousers
Matt blogs about the events at the Leeds Beer Festival 2006.
Well as mentioned earlier, for me the first night at the beer festival was shorter than expected, however I thoroughly enjoyed my full compliment.
My selection process was less organised than Mike’s, as I just picked beers at random. However that was unless I came across an old favorite such as Woodforde’s Wherry. An excellent ale all the way from Norfolk, and also available in kit form if you ever take an interest in home brewing.
Unfortunately the night took a horrible twist as at some point my trousers obtained a rip around the posterior area. When, where and how i’ve no idea. What was worse is that in the morning this fact had slipped my mind and I put the same trousers back on to go to work… Luckily no one noticed, partially because I didn’t move from my seat once I realized, but it’s an experience I wouldn’t like to repeat.
So just remember, next time you go to the beer festival, make sure you take a spare pair trousers.
