Over 1500 people enjoyed a weekend of beer, music and food at Lockwood Park, sampling 40 beers from around the UK. They were entertained by some great music and were sustained by fare from The Sons of the North, Coffee Brothers, Pop Up Pizzaiolo and Dapur Malaysia.
Thank you to all those who attended and supported the event, the weather almost held out but even the occasional downpour couldn’t dampen the spirits of those in attendance.
Attendees were entertained by Admiral Boom, Sam Scherdel and Blind Monkeys on Friday evening. On Saturday the music was from ME and Deboe, The Valleys, All Of The Above, Never Too Late and The Fabulous Rocking Sturgeons. The festival was drawn to a close on Sunday by Mason Whittle, James O’Hara Blues Band and Razorbach Yorkshire.
