The annual Dark vs Light Real Ale Festival is back, promising a weekend of exceptional beer-tasting experiences. This popular festival features 20 carefully selected real ales, showcasing a diverse range of flavours and styles.

To make the experience even more enjoyable, the festival is organised into two distinct sections: one side of the bar is dedicated to rich, dark ales, offering deep, robust flavours, while the other side features lighter ales, perfect for those who prefer crisp and refreshing options.

Visitors can explore the full spectrum of real ales, discover new favourites, and enjoy a vibrant atmosphere celebrating the best of craft brewing. The festival is ideal for ale enthusiasts and casual drinkers alike, offering something for everyone throughout the entire weekend.
