Currie Beer Festival

My commitment to local community activities was on show again on Friday night as I spent a very enjoyable evening supporting the Currie Beer and Curry Festival. Well organised and run by the good people of the Currie and Balerno Round Table, this was the second annual festival, held over two nights, but it was so well organised it felt like it has been a regular fixture for years. Credit must go to the numerous volunteers who had obviously spent a great deal of time and effort and in particular to those responsible for identifying the more than 30 beers and ciders to choose from. All the ales were Scottish and mostly from the central belt. More money raised too for local charities, something the Round Table are particularly good at, what's not to like ? Looking forward to next year already...
