For my money this is the best beer festival in the south west.
Organised by SIBA (Society of Independent Brewers)it's held on the ground floor of Tuckers traditional malthouse(yes the Malt is cleared out!) It's therefore got lots of atmosphere as well as fantastic and huge selection of beers. I have simply never been dissapointed at this festival. Friday evening is probably best avoided after last years experience where they had to stop further admissions due to popularity.
Usually live music (you have to be close though!)a high quality Sausage-in-a-bun-man, for discworld fans too. ven lots of room outside for the Kids to run around in.
Easy walking distance of railway station and lots of takeawy's if Sausage is not your thing(poor souls)
You won't be dissapointed but try to keep it to yourself.
My recommendation: RCH East Street Cream
