Alton's Summer Beer Festival will take place on Saturday 31st May 2008. Tickets for the May festival will be £6, due to rising cost of beers, etc, etc; but rest assured, because we don't want to raise the price of the beer just yet, which will remain at an incredible £2 per pint!
As at previous beer festivals, we will have a great collection of interesting local ales and ciders, plus a selection of local English wines.
Live music for the Summer festival will again be provided by must-be-seen Grandpa Spells jazz band at lunchtime, and by the ever popular Dr Dawsons’ Boogie Band in the evening.
Again, those reusing previous year's Alton Beer Festival glasses will qualify for a free beer.
