The fourth Bath CAMRA Winter Ales Festival is to be held on Fri 7th and Sat 8th Feb 2020. Once again we are hosted in the club house of the Widcombe Social Club but a different time of year due to venue availability and cost considerations. We are again running two public sessions, a Friday evening one from 5pm to 11pm and a Saturday lunchtime-into-early-evening session running from 11am to 7pm. For Six Nations fans the Ireland v Wales and Scotland v England games will be shown on at least one tv in the ground floor bar on the Saturday afternoon. That bar will remain open to beer festival customers after the festival itself closes (which should be just after final whistle). We aim to have at least 30 cask beers from near and far and four or five ciders/perries and a range of hot and cold food. Typically four or five beers sell out sometime during Saturday leaving at least twenty five to choose from throughout the entire festival. Beer will be sold in half pint and third pint measures. The admission charge for each session is once again un-changed at £8 and this includes £2 worth of beer tokens to all customers. Card-carrying CAMRA members are entitled to a further £2 worth of beer tokens but please note that these are claimed at the event itself – the full price must be paid when purchasing tickets in advance. We recommended that people buy tickets in advance and etickets are available now from www.bathandborderscamra.org.uk. Paper tickets are also available from the Old Green Tree in Bath, or from The Stumble Inn in Bradford-on-Avon. This years nominated charity is Dorothy House hospice. The venue can be accessed from Bath Spa railway station and the Bath bus station via the Halfpenny Bridge over the River Avon from where a short stroll down Widcombe High Street takes you to the club slightly up the hill from the Co-op corner store. Widcombe Social Club and Bath & Borders CAMRA look forward to welcoming you to the festival in this great venue which enjoys magnificent views across Bath.
