Provision of Proper Beer at Conference

My attempts to lobby various members of FCC to arrange for provision of proper beer at conference have thus far proved fruitless. I can see two ways forward from this. Either we ALL start nagging them, and then they are less likely to dismiss the protest as just a random loon, or (and, TBH, I see this as more likely to succeed), we start arranging Fringe events etc in nearby real ale pubs, as opposed to the lager-infested and overpriced conference hotels.

Your thoughts?
