Outdoors: What's on this weekend

TRY SOME Pig's Ear, Norfolk Nog or Summer Lightning this weekend in the suitable setting of a Kentish oast- house. The Hop Farm at Beltring is hosting a Camra Beer Festival where you can sample a selection from more than 90 British beers, and relive a traditional hopping summer, aided by modern technology and maybe a pint of two. Teetotallers can have fun exploring the oast-houses, meeting giant shire horses and investigating the Happy Hoppers adventure playground.

Beer in Britain Festival, 27 and 28 June 11am onwards at the Hop Farm Country Park, Beltring, Paddock Wood, Kent (01622 872068, http://www.uk- travelguide. co.uk/hop-farm/index.htm). Day tickets, adults pounds 5, children pounds 3.
