Pumps are primed for Harbury’s 21st beer festival

Run by the Heart of Warwickshire branch of the Campaign for Real Ale, the ever popular event takes on the theme of West Yorkshire this year, with beers ranging from the well known Timothy Taylors to micro breweries that have only been brewing for two months.

The event will also play host to judging for the porter category for the West Midlands Region Beer of the Year competition, meaning six of the best porters from the area will be also be on tap. And to mark their 21st anniversary, organisers are including special beers.

Other entertainments will be provided by the Hereburgh Morris dancers, Caribbean steel pans, the Harbury Ukulele Band and local duo Time After Time, while food will be provided by the village hall committee and scouts.

The festivities begin at the village hall at 5.30pm tonight and will resume at 11.30am tomorrow, running until 4pm, then again from 6pm to 11.20pm. Entry costs £10, which covers the cost of some beer tokens.
