Saturday 26th November
“It’s a beer festival on the move!”
South Herts CAMRA’s annual tour of Hertford town pubs gives beer drinkers a choice of over 30 real ales – from near and far. And many of the pubs offer real cider or perry. Saturday 26th November is the day, the tour commencing at 1.00pm and continuing into the early evening. Our itinerary provides an opportunity to visit many of the best real ale outlets in Hertford. Local members will be there to help you with directions, town information and brewing or pub histories. We hope to see you somewhere along the way for a pint or two or perhaps a few halves:

Hertford hosts a Saturday market and has a full range of cafés, coffee shops and restaurants for those arriving in the morning, when a visit to Hertford Museum in Bull Plain will be worthwhile. It has displays of brewing and pubs on its first floor.
Transport: Hertford East Station is reached either direct from Cheshunt, Tottenham Hale and Liverpool Street or via Broxbourne for travellers from Bishop’s Stortford and Cambridge. Hertford North Station has trains direct from Stevenage or Enfield Chase, Finsbury Park and Moorgate. The 724 Green Line bus connects Hertford to Ware and Harlow in the east (all day and all evening) and Welwyn Garden City, Hatfield, St Albans and Watford in the west (note: the last westbound 724 leaves Hertford Bus Station at 7.54pm).
Everyone welcome!
