For the 2003 St. Albans Beer Festival, Boudicca came back to St. Albans...

...and she wasn't after a Bacardi and Coke!

St. Albans Beer Festival, our celebration of British cask-conditioned beers (otherwise and generally known as real ales) was again a wonderful success, with over 300 different British real ales available for customers, to say nothing of ciders, perries and foreign beers.

The Festival, which is run entirely by volunteers from South Herts branch of CAMRA (The Campaign for Real Ale) and the St. Albans Leos, was held as usual at the Alban Arena which is situated just off St. Peter's Street in the heart of the City.
