The Campaign for Real Ale’s Great British Beer Festival at Your Local kicks off this weekend, with events nationwide.
Events run from today to Sunday, 8th August, with some taking place later in the month, too. These include mini beer festivals, meet the brewer sessions, tastings, quizzes, and more.
A spokesperson said: “We hope you will support this great initiative and join an event taking place near you. Or, alternatively, just pop down to your local with friends and family!”
