“Those who’ve been to our summer festival know it will be a relaxed and friendly event, with lots to keep you entertained throughout,” says the brewer.

“Plenty of new beers are continually emerging, so we are sure to have something you won’t have tried, together with our old favourites.”

Local punk folk band Driven Serious will be playing an acoustic set, the the microphone will be opened up to anyone who wishes to jump on. There will also be a barbecue.

Visitors are being advised to wrap up warm, and the organisers add: “Dogs are welcome, as long as they’re supervised by well-behaved owners.”

Advance tickets are £7.50 per person and include two drink tokens (half-pint up to 5% abv). Tickets are available from the online shop and the brewery shop. On the door tickets will be £10.
