mr_bizarre Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 The real ale bar? Never used to be then when I last worked with WBC at Glasto. The Red Flag was the WBC bar in that field, just down the hill slightly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

avengermassey Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Does anyone know which ones sell Guinness, I think the one kind of behind the other stage sold it last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kerplunk Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 I don't I'm sorry, in fact I can't even remember the only real ale being sold where I worked last year...Good ain't I?! I have been corrected, the real ale bar isn't one of ours, hopefully someone else could answer this question? It's usually Wherry bitter at the main bars - it's not a bad pint and it's good that it's widely available but after a few I'm normally hankering after a bit of better bitter from somewhere else...

mozzy Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Thanks for that. The Red Flag almost rings a bell for the Real Ale tent, would like confirmation though if anyone is super sure. I ought to know, I spent enough time sheltering in there last year! Perhaps that explains why I can't remember though. Ahem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbbrslmn Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 All of the bigger bars should have it. Leftfield, Mandella, Bread & Roses and Stonebridge for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBoyInTheBubble Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 PS WoW - me & my missus still laugh about your provisional wing of CAMRA rant from last year, top quality! If you see a not-slim bloke in an Everton shirt in the Red Flag at Thursday lunchtime say hello & I'll buy you a pint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul ™ Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 The Red Flag definitely is the real ale bar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TalkShow Bob Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Is the Red Flag by the other stage? Or is that the First of May (the bar that is stage right). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
