I’ve written about festivals a lot. And, having never missed a Cape Town Festival of Beer, I’ve shared my thoughts on the 2011 fest, the 2012 version and 2013’s proceedings. So instead, I bring you a photo blog, with some of my fave shots from the weekend. Most of them were taken on a Blackberry so, y’know – they’re supposed to be about the content rather than the quality!!

CTFOB 2014 – the end. An awesome event, congrats to the organisers. See you again next year!
Some of my beer besties, for I couldn’t end this on the sad note that is a discarded festival wrist band once the weekend is over!
