Was there Thursday afternoon / evening, made my 3 new breweries and sampled an excellent selection of beers in good condition. It was also a very friendly festival. Met a few interesting characters too which makes it all the more fun. So well done to all at Egham USC; Dates for the next ones already pencilled in the diary! Cheers Chris Walkden SCOOPGEN: Chris Walken

It's nice to know our efforts to source new and unusual beers aren't in vain. I also need to thank all of the visitors who literally travel, in many cases, hundreds of miles to attend our 'little' beer festival - if you didn't make the effort it would never be the success it's rapidly become. It's been great to meet some mighty names in the beer drinking world such as Brian Moore and Rick Pickup amongst many, many more. Thanks again and see you all in November!! Bob SCOOPGEN: Bob Inman

Surely this great club must be a major contender for CAMRA Club Of The Year. Thanks to Bob for the very useful daily updates and Richard and all concerned for their hard work- yesterday they seemed to be permanently changing casks! I must admit I did chicken out of the worlds most bitter beer which was interesting to say the least. Next festival 4th to 7 th November. Its been CAMRA Nation Club runner up for the last 2 years. Third time lucky? SCOOPGEN: Loz Aslett

I went on Thursday and found all the beers i sampled to be in excellent condition. Yet again the EUSC has surpassed itself . I have been to 5 of the 6 festivals held there and always find the members and staff so friendly and helpful and the imaginative selection of some of the smaller and rarely seen micro-breweries is very much appreciated by all those who attend . Cant wait for the next fest !! SCOOPGEN: Simon Tottman
