The Brewmaster's Open minigolf tournament at the Camden Town Brewery in London
Playing crazy golf in a brewery!
The Brewmaster's Open minigolf tournament took place at the Camden Town Brewery in London on this day in 2012.
We competed in The Brewmaster's Open at the Camden Town Brewery 14 years ago today. It was part of the brilliant summer of sport in the capital.

More than 200 players competed in the tournament on the pop-up 5-hole crazy golf course.

A lost minigolf course - Pirate Crazy Golf at Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park
A look at the Pirate Crazy Golf course at Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park in East Sussex.
Last week I asked the question "Where in the world was this minigolf course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour?".
The Pirate Crazy Golf course at Pontins Camber Sands became the 585th visited and 351st course played on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour when we swung by for a round in October 2014.
Pontins Camber Sands Holiday Park closed in 2023 so the course is not accessible.

From the Crazy World of Minigolf Tour archives - Medieval-themed Adventure Golf in Tamworth
A look at the medieval-themed adventure golf course at Namco Funscape in Tamworth back in 2017.
This was the medieval-themed adventure golf course at Namco Funscape in Tamworth, Staffordshire.
We haven't seen many medieval-themed courses on our travels.
Interestingly the course was half indoors and half outdoors - not something we've seen all that often either. Some of the outdoor holes were also under shelter.

Adventure Golf at Beacon Park in Lichfield, Staffordshire
A look at the new adventure golf course at Beacon Park in Lichfield, Staffordshire.
We swung by the adventure golf course at Beacon Park in Lichfield during an afternoon in the city on the way back home from a trip to visit family and friends in East Anglia.
| The new course replaced the crazy golf course in the park and covers the same location |
| This particular Eternit miniature golf obstacle has been retained in the new course layout, with some modifications as can be seen below |
The new adventure golf course at Beacon Park opened in May this year.
The adventure golf course at Beacon Park is a 9-hole outdoor woodland-inspired adventure golf layout.
It became the 1,129th course visited on our Crazy World of Minigolf Tour since 2006.
Beacon Park in Lichfield is also home to a Pitch & Putt course.
