The brewer line-up has been confirmed for the Festival of Brewers, being held on June 29 and 30 at New Craven Hall, just South of Leeds City Centre.

The festival concept is to host an event shining a spotlight on smaller, independent craft breweries that are often overlooked at other festivals in favour of the more well-known producers. These breweries are brewing on small kit, and producing great tasting, quality beers.
