For the record I just wanted to say "Wow!". Last year was brilliant. This year was better. Not only from the keynote speaker in John Palmer but the whole day was packed with amazing information .....and Rossas shirt. I don't like cider and thought I'd drift off but that talk was compelling. i don't know how this is going to be better in 2018.

Great Day again this year.

Get Jasmin and her boyfriend to speak together next year, theres an idea.

I feel a group buy of Cockagee Cider coming on so we can all give Keeving a go.

The selection and quality of beers afterwards was a credit to the NHC as a whole.
