So less than 5 pints as the fruit beers were only 250ml bottles.
The festival must have started running out after 9pm. When I returned to the main hall to get a drink after spending a while in the foreign beers/cider/games room, I was surprised to see so many dead barrels - maybe 90% - with still over an hour to go. Luckily I was leaving early for the train back to Reading.
With my remaining tokens I did buy a 330ml bottle of Hoegaarden Grand Cru to take away for the train journey back. Fortunately, I decided against consuming this 8.5% brew and will save it for another day.
