benali Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 No sign of Tiny Rebel in the ale line up. Maybe too big now they stock it in supermarkets? There's 3 Green Man Growler ales this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A perennial highlight, and one of the things I’ll miss the most this year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewevie Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 1 hour ago, incident said: Standon Calling, about 3 weeks ago? Sorry, couldn't resist. I've been to a few of the real muddy glastonburys that were kind of ruined..like 97, that was horrible, especially as I really didn't have the right clothing for it. Took forever to walk anywhere. Infact there was talk of it being cancelled on first day, other stage sinking etc. And then 98 was also bad, just kept bloody raining hard all the time and we gave up and got out of there saturday morning (days before you needed tickets!). And then in 2005 when we had about a months rain in a few hours and there was a flooding and chaos the next morning. I mean, some people love all that...but I was just glad they were over...especially 97. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

March Hare Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) It’s Brecon Beacons so the area is well equipped to handle a lot of rain. Even the worst forecast is only for a little bit of rain. It might get a little muddy but it’s not going to be mud fest ‘21. Bring waterproofs, bring wellies/good boots, bring a good tent. Then it’s party time Edited August 16, 2021 by March Hare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's 3 Green Man Growler ales this year. I can cope with no Tiny Rebel (living two miles from the brewery helps), but no Andy's Loos is a shock to the system! Andy has been the hero of so many GMs 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A perennial highlight, and one of the things I’ll miss the most this year! +1 for this. Even though I wasn't there in 2019, I've read about certain beers running out (Tiny Rebel, looking at you) so have an irrational fear that with COVID / HGV disruption there will be none left by the time I get there, so at least looking at the list will help get the priority right upon arrival!

steviewevie Posted August 16, 2021 Report Share Posted August 16, 2021 Also...is it better to take loads of cash, or is it easy to use contactless? And I assume there's phone charging there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I assume there's phone charging there? There are cash machines on site, I always take some cash just in case but I think most places will have card machines. There is phone charging in the courtyard and the lost and found tent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quality gear, a bit on the heavy side so decent rucksack required but will see you through a five day festival easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
