Welcome to the Welcome to the Peterborough Beer Festival, organized and run by the Peterborough & District branch of The Campaign for Real Ale. A few changes and improvements have been made this year. The ‘walk around layout’ remains in place, so you can stroll round and spot any beers you would like to sample. A new addition to our beer range is the introduction of the ‘key keg’ or as it is sometimes labelled ‘craft’ ales bar. This is in response to the growing popularity of this style of beer around the country, and has been approved by CAMRA. You will find the Key Keg bar next to the popular Singles bar. Over 400 real ales will be served including some from local micros and new breweries. As usual we have a few produced specially for the festival including our own brew made by our ‘cellar brewers’ at local brewery Bakers Dozen. Our aim is to have every brew ready for the opening session. As well as this, we have an extensive range of ciders, bottled beers and country wines. Please be aware that some of these are fairly potent. Glasses are on offer for a deposit of £3 and a full refund is given if the glass is returned intact. Our glasses are oversized lined glasses to ensure you receive a full pint measure. Please make sure you do not leave your glass unattended. Anyone who wishes to bring their own glass to the festival may do so but we will only serve the contents in it using our own measured glasses. We do not allow drinks to be brought into the festival except one sealed small bottle of water. CAMRA continues to campaign to stop the closure and destruction of our pubs. We were encouraged by the government’s introduction of their Enterprise and Employment Bill, which had an amendment to allow tied tenants of companies with more than 500 pubs to have their rent reviewed independently. It would also give tenants the option of being able to buy beer at prices on the open market.
39th CAMRA
Peterborough Beer Festival
The government also introduced legislation last year with the provision of the Localism Act and Assets of Community Value, known as ACVs. Within our branch area we have secured a number of ACVs in order to protect pubs from being lost and converted to other uses such as supermarkets or convenience stores. CAMRA membership stands now at more than 180,000 and still rising. We have a dedicated team who strive to encourage new members to become active within the branch. In recent years we have had some new faces come and take on roles within the committee. We do really need some new faces to replace, or assist, the more mature members of our team, who have done a great job over the last 30odd years. If you want the PBF to continue we need your help! We encourage any members who wish to be part of our team helping to run our social events, organize and run this festival, and support and our pubs and local brewers. Join up at our membership stand and, whilst stocks last, receive a free pint of Brains beer from the sponsors of the membership stand. We hope your visit to this year’s festival is an enjoyable one. Please remember we are a very big ‘pub’ so are governed by the same laws as your local. The staff are different as they are unpaid volunteers, so bear that in mind during the busy times. If you would like to become part of this ‘family’ then go to the membership stand and sign up to help us. The benefits far outweigh the cost. Cheers
David Murray Peterborough Branch Chairman

Peterborough Beer Festival 2016
Have Fun at the
Festival We all hope that your visit to the Beer Festival this year will be a memorable one. Remember without your support the festival could not take place, and the chance to sample some of the excellent brews on offer would be lost. Please try and imagine the festival marquees as one giant pub. Of course, as with all pubs, there are certain rules we have to comply with. The times of opening are published in the programme and the marquees are completely non-smoking. Accompanied children are allowed in the bar marquees, but please keep them away from the bar serveries. And remember that it is against the law to drink alcohol on site if you are under 18. You will need to buy a glass before you start. If it gets too sticky or you want to change glass sizes just take it back to the glasses counter and, provided it is undamaged, exchange it. The Beer Festival serves all beer, cider and wine in oversized glasses with governmentstamped, line-measured markings to ensure that you, the customer, get a full measure in your glass. Please be careful if you put your glass down on a table, on the grass, or anywhere that it could be knocked over and broken. If such an event does occur please inform a member of staff or security that there is broken glass. On no account attempt to pick up the pieces yourself. We have staff with the proper equipment to retrieve it safely. Do not grind it into the grass! Other events take place on this site after we have finished. Be careful not to leave your glass unattended. Remember – You paid for it!
Peterborough Beer Festival 2016
To ensure you enjoy the festival at all times we advise you to start off with some light beers, say a mild or low gravity ale, then on to something a bit stronger. Starting off with the strongest beers on the menu means your taste buds get no chance to enjoy the different flavours that the various brews offer. As with any other pub we do have the right to eject any person who we feel is a threat to other customers or our staff. Thankfully this is a very rare occurrence. Also remember that, just like other pubs, you are not allowed to drink your own alcohol on site and illegal drugs are totally banned and their use will result in a call to the police. Finally let me remind you of the dedicated staff who are serving you at the festival. Every one of them is an unpaid volunteer, so please be patient at busy times. The person serving you may well have been on duty for the best part of the day, or the whole week, and are naturally starting to flag a bit! You can help these people by joining CAMRA and offering to help run the festival. 7

Entertainment & Music at the Festival Just a brief introduction for the 2016 Peterborough Beer Fest Entertainment line-up. As ever we have tried to focus on local bands with the exception of Merry Hell (Anyone remember The Tansads from PBF 1993 and 1994) who will be travelling all the way from the North West of England to entertain us on Friday evening. Following their success last year The Stringlers will be back, also on Friday, which is looking set for a great night. What has now become a regular feature will be the Tuesday night slot featuring a host of local talent for Stacey’s Open Mic night, do come along and support these brave artists performing on the big festival stage. Don’t forget to look out for Peterborough Morris performing around the site on Tuesday from 6pm. With a full programme through the festival we again have the Palmerston Ukelele Band on Friday teatime with a full Saturday afternoon programme from around 2pm onwards before Austin Gold early evening and closing with the One Eyed Cats. My thanks to ALL who have approached me over the last 12 months, please do keep doing so at festival-organiser@beer-fest.org.uk we really appreciate your interest, but with only seven evening slots to fill whilst covering a diverse range of music it is impossible to feature everyone. All times are approximate and subject to change. Please see www.beer-fest.org.uk for updates and more info.

9pm One Eyed Cats The Glorious One Eyed Cats are a lively seven piece Peterborough band that plays a variety of music that everybody knows, ranging from Rock and Roll through Rhythm and Blues to Swing and Good Times. Whether it’s high-octane rock & roll, cool blues, jumping rhythm, driving rock or a hair-down sing-along, the Cats always deliver. And deliver incredibly well. The Cats formed some eighteen years ago out of a group of established musicians all looking to get back to having fun. As such, they honed their sound playing in bars and festivals; the stages starting small and getting progressively larger. Their music has taken them around the world, but they always love to come home. Their large line up is suited to their huge sound, with a fiery brass section, rocking guitar and rolling piano. Their music is always lively, passionate and entertaining. They always aim to lift the roof off, rock socks off and leave everybody fully entertained. All with immense enthusiasm, fine humour and unquestionable musicianship. Come and see the Glorious One Eyed Cats, let your hair down and treat yourself to this great Saturday finale to Peterborough Beer Festival 2016. www.oneyedcats.com

This year we increased the size of the LocAle bar and all beers from LocAle Breweries will be in one place. We now have at least fifteen microbreweries within our branch area. This may actually increase as I am writing this. Joking aside this is great news for real ale enthusiasts as 20 years ago, there were only two.
The LocAle bar will be situated on bar 4, which is in the North Marquee opposite the Games and Tombola stall and directly next to the Cider bar.
Make sure you visit us to sample some of what our branch area brewers have to offer, you will not be disappointed, we can guarantee that! Don’t forget you will supporting your local economy, the local business entrepreneurs, local jobs, and helping to reduce “beer miles”, hence doing your bit for the planet.
Don’t forget that a number of our local real ale establishments stock locally brewed ale & cider on a regular basis. This LocAle scheme is a major promotion within CAMRA and the Peterborough branch have introduced a “LocAle pub of the year” competition, which was awarded in January 2016. This has been embraced keenly by several of our pubs and its not too late for licencees that don’t currently stock local beers, or ale lovers to support the scheme. Peterborough Beer Festival 2016

All about
We welcome a new(ish) technology to the Peterborough Beer Festival this year called a keykeg. I know, I know... it is a bit scary to see the word “keg” anywhere remotely close to a CAMRA festival, but we must assure you that we are not being rebels here. The reason why keykeg is now being featured at CAMRA festivals is because there has recently been an official acceptance that the product that is held within a keykeg is in fact, REAL.
use CO2 injected into a container that holds the beer and increases the pressure within the container causing the beer to flow out of the tap when it is open. While the tap is closed, the CO2 is still being forced into the beer causing it to carbonate. Keykegs, however, don’t even need CO2 for the beer to be served. Often times, such as at this festival, a simple air compressor is used to squeeze a bladder within the Keykeg to force the beer out to the tap. The air never comes into contact with the product therefore that product is never altered (in other words, the beer is only as carbonated as the brewery wants it to be...keykeg beer isn’t always fizzy!). I suppose the easiest way to explain the technology is to show you! See the illustration on the next page.
Keykegs are nothing like the old traditional kegs of yesteryear. Instead, like many other modern things, technology has been used to make it better! As we all know, traditional kegs
The keykeg selection for this beer festival features some of the most sought after and game changing brewers. Some of the brewers have only been brewing a year or so, while

Keg starts out with internal bag full of beer - beer has conditioned inside the keg just like a big bottle. The carbonation of the beer has been decided by the brewery and cannot be changed by the application of gas pressure.
Pressure inside keg “squeezes” beer out of the internal bag. Clear beer is served from the top - whilst sediment settles to the bottom.
some of them have been around for quite a while. What they all have in common is the desire to make incredible beer and to get it out to the public in the best condition possible. The format for this bar is different than the rest of the bars at the festival...think of it as an extension of the singles bar. There will be only 13 beers on at any given time and 45 different beers in total. Although we know what beers we have, we won’t know what is going on when; therefore we can’t guarantee that you will be able to have the beers you are looking for when you want them. In order to avoid disappointment, check back often as these kegs could come and go very quickly. We will not be holding back any stock so get them while you can. When they are gone, they are gone! We will also only be providing these beers with a maximum of ½ pint measures so that we can enable as many people as possible the opportu-

nity to try something from this bar (feel free to come back for a second ½ pint of something if you really enjoyed it). If you are interested in finding out more about the keykeg technology, there is a brief write up about it in the most recent Beer Around ‘Ere (Issue 190) or feel free to ask for me, Steve Saldana, while visiting the keykeg bar. And for those of you out there that have absolutely no interest in these beers, we have some great news: there are still more than 350 real ales, ciders, country wines and more at the festival for you to sample! These keykeg beers have only increased selection and in no way have they decreased our selection of traditional cask ales.

Cooper We are fortunate once again to have a visit from T & R Theakston’s master cooper, Jonathan Manby on Tuesday. This year, Jonathan will be accompanied by his new apprentice Euan Findlay.
T & R Theakston are one of the few British brewers who still employ a full-time cooper. Although their beers are no longer delivered in oak casks some of their beers are matured in the wood. Jonathan was trained by master brewer and cooper, Clive Hollis, and is one of the few remaining coopers in the country. Peterborough Beer Festival 2016
Everyone who has watched Jonathan’s demonstration of his craft has enjoyed watching him create casks with tools that haven’t changed in centuries. If you didn’t catch it last year, then make sure that you do not miss the chance to observe and marvel at his skill in the north tent.

Austria Eggenberger Hopfenkonig 5.1% 33cl Pilsner Hoppy smooth Austrian pilsner made to the German purity law. Welcome to the Foreign Beer Bar at Peterborough Beer Festival. Well here we go again, and welcome! Yet again we have a good selection of beers from other countries: a total of 153 beers in the bottles section. In the draught section we have Lindenboom, Berliner Pilsner, Timmermans Strawberry and Bacchus Framboise. We also have this year a new range of beers from Norway from Brewery Lervig as well as a wide range of a lot of old favourites including all the Trappist breweries. It is my wish to increase the beers from Germany, France and Spain but, unfortunately, it would appear that none of the distributors in the UK seem to want to import from those countries. Therefore it is my mission over the next year to try and obtain a supply from these countries. Any help appreciated!! That aside I am sure that you will find something to suit your palate and our specialist friendly staff will be happy to guide you through your journey to Beer Heaven. We look forward to seeing you and hope you enjoy the Beer Festival and leave with good memories. Peter Josling Foreign Beer Bar Organiser

Peterborough Beer Festival 2016
Cider & Perry Bar Welcome to the cider and perry bar. All the ciders and perries sold here are ‘real’ in the sense that they consist principally of fermented apple and fermented pear juice respectively (a mixed apple / pear fermentation is termed a “pyder”). Most of the ciders and perries here are 100% apple / pear juice, but changes to CAMRA’s definition of Real Cider allows for some natural fruit and other flavourings. You will therefore find on the bar strawberry, raspberry, blackcurrant and other fruit ciders, also elderflower and ginger, even rhubarb. You will note that most of the fruit ciders are 4% ABV, considerably weaker than most of the non-fruit ciders. This is because of Customs and Excise duty bands; fruit cider over 4% is classified as fruit wine and taxed as such. None of the ciders / perries are artificially carbonated or served under gas pressure. This means that the majority of the ciders are still, although some will sparkle a little due to the residual fermentation in the tubs. Because of the nature of the fermentation process real ciders and perries may be crystal clear, hazy or even cloudy, but they should not be so opaque as to make them look unappealing in the glass. Local, small scale cider making is on the rise in many parts of the country, a trend which is to be encouraged, and we have a good range of Peterborough Beer Festival 2016
locally sourced ciders at the festival. We are also selling a range of non-alcoholic apple juices on the bar. These are 100% juice and mixing them with a cider gives a very pleasant drink at a lower ABV than cider on its own. The bar staff will be very happy to give small tastes and discuss the drinks with you provided the bar is not too busy. The tub labels should tell most of what you need to know when ordering. Green labels are cider and yellow labels are perry (including any pyders). Most ciders / perries are made from a blend of apple / pear varieties; where a single variety has been used this is on the tub label. All the ciders and perries have been categorized as Very Dry, Dry, Medium Dry, Medium, Medium Sweet, Sweet or Very Sweet. This grading has been carried out by your dedicated cider bar staff and is a bit subjective, feel free to disagree if you wish, but it is a useful starting point. Sometimes there are discrepancies in ABV and / or sweetness grading between the program and the tub labels; this is inevitable since the programme has to be produced some time in advance while the tub labels are only generated once the cider has arrived and has been tasted. If this happens trust the tub labels rather than the programme. Wassail! Chris Rogers Cider Bar Manager 61

Wine List Welcome to the 2016 wine bar. We are just inside the south marquee, so hopefully easy to find. All our wines are English and we offer a selection of some of the best White, Rose, Red and sparkling wines, not to forget the ever popular country fruit wines from Lyme Bay Winery in Devon. For 2016 I am pleased to have sourced three new red wines to the beer festival and the return of sparkling strawberry from Lyme Bay. We are offering 30 English wines to try this year. Many are new to the festival. How often do you get the opportunity to try so many English wines - which in my opinion are ever improving. As with the beers we will not have all the wines in the programme available at all times but we will aim to have a good selection. If you have any questions about the wines or are unsure what to choose, please ask and we will do our best to help. Enjoy the festival and the wines. Pamela Baines PBF Wine Bar Manager The bar will also stock lemonade and sparkling water should you wish to have a spritzer.

Thank you to our sponsors
With soaring costs the PBF needs to be more financially viable. Last year we suggested the idea of sponsorship of a barrel of beer, the same as the Falmouth Beer Festival. It is very successful with the majority of their beer sponsored. Last year we were successful with a number of sponsors and the feedback during and after the festival was extremely positive. Anyone can sponsor a barrel. You get an excellent package of tickets, tokens, logo in the guide and above your barrel. If interested, email us or chat to us at the Sponsors Bar. A big thank you to all those who have sponsored us over the last couple of years

Design our logo for 2017 and win £200! The final design will need the words, “Peterborough Beer Festival” and “40th” and will need to include the CAMRA logo. However, if you don’t think that you can do all that then don’t worry. It is the idea that is important. We can always get an artist to create a design using your idea. Thank you to all who sent in designs for the logo in 2016. Now it’s time to try again. We will need a logo for the 40th Peterborough Beer Festival. If you have an artistic bent – or even if you haven’t – hunt out those old pencils and have a go. We are offering £200 for the design or idea that we use.

Closing date for entries is February 20th 2017. Send your designs with your name and address to Logo Competition, 205 High Street, Old Fletton, Peterborough, PE2 8DY or to logo@beer-fest.org.uk.

Chuck it Bucket! In the
Once again, it is the time of year when we ask you to dig deep in your pockets, buy copious amounts of beer (keeping of course within government guidelines) and chuck whatever Pennies, Shekels, Zlotys and of course after the June vote, any other useless or obsolete currency you may have about your persons, (such as Euros?) in our buckets! This, as you probably know, is the busiest time of year for our Lifeboat crews and in particular, our beach lifeguard teams. These often forgotten volunteers, and I am guilty of this over the years, help keep over 200 UK. and Channel Island beaches safe for us and our children.
In 2014 our Lifeguards attended no less than 17,050 incidents, saving 70 lives, rescuing 1,075 persons and providing both major and minor medical assistance to almost 13,000 people. Not bad for a bunch of unpaid volunteers is it!
All their equipment is, as indeed is the cost of Lifeboats, crew equipment and the running of the RNLI, funded entirely by donations from people like you! You are the unsung heroes of the RNLI. Without your support, we would simply not exist. We get no direct funding from government. On a more local note, PBF IV, based at Skeggy, was called out in October last year: 78
Launch Date: Sunday 4 October 2015 Launch Time: 11:28 Recover Time: 12:10 (42mins) Lifeboat: ILB D-739 Peterborough Beer Festival IV Conditions: Cloudy, Slight, SW F1 Outcome: 2 Lives saved Crew List: T.Kelly, C.Hopkins & L.Mawer Details: Lifeboat tasked to a capsized catamaran 1/4 of a mile offshore at Jacksons Corner. The catamaran was upside down with 2 crew sat upon the upturned hull. The inshore lifeboat took both casualties on board and proceeded to tow the catamaran towards the shore. Crews assisted in righting the catamaran at the waters edge and then returned to station.
YOUR donations saved those 2 peoples lives. Feel proud? So you should.
We at the local branch, thank you all for your past support, and in anticipation of this years magnificent donation! In closing, and on a personal note; Chuck it in the Bucket!
Safe journey home.
