Belhaven Brewery has celebrated 300 years of brewing beers in style, hosting the Belhaven 300th Birthday Bash in Dunbar.
The festival, coupling the best in Scottish music and beer, was a sell-out, with thousands of revellers at the brewery.
The event line-up reflected Belhaven’s 300-year-old history and its distinctly modern outlook, with traditional music acts and top talent from the folk scene over the last three decades taking to the stage.
Visitors enjoyed fantastic food and Belhaven Brewery’s award-winning beers from tap bars around the grounds, including 1719, a specially brewed celebration pale ale, Twisted Grapefruit IPA, 2018 Scottish beer of the year, gold-medal winner Twisted Thistle IPA, and, of course, Belhaven Best.
Elsewhere, families enjoyed treasure trail activities and football and rugby sessions in the grounds.
‘It’s not every year you get to mark such a momentous milestone’
Gordon Muir, Belhaven Brewery’s marketing controller and the festival organiser, said: “Belhaven’s 300th Birthday Bash was the ultimate party, and it was fantastic to have thousands of our loyal customers and fans along to the brewery to celebrate with us.
“It’s not every year you get to mark such a momentous milestone, and combining Belhaven’s two loves, beer and Scottish music, was the perfect recipe for success, with sell-out crowds enjoying the festival.
“It was a joy to have some of the most in-demand traditional artists playing in the unique setting of our Dunbar brewery, and to welcome so many families along to enjoy our music masterclasses, storytelling, and sport sessions. It certainly was a weekend to remember.”
