I've been to a festival today that was unusual in several respects.

It was held in a private member's club, although the festival was open to the public.

It served forty-plus cask beers in tip-top condition, half a dozen on handpull from the member's bar and the rest on perfectly-cool stillage.

It sold the most attractive cheese and onion cob that I've seen in a long while.

And every beer cost £1.25 a half. From Theakston's Mild at 3.5% on gravity to Fuller's Golden Pride at 8.5%.

How many festivals do you know with uniform beer pricing? >
