Harrogate Beer Festival for women returns next month
The Harrogate beer festival that attempts to break down barriers between women and beer is back next month.
The beer and arts festival called WOTFEST SIX, organised by Women on Tap CIC, will return to Harrogate between May 4 and 8 and offer a place for women interested in beer or those wanting to learn more to come together and try it out.
The festival works with bars, breweries and industry experts to provide a space for thought-provoking communications and for women to explore more beers.
Festival highlights include an evening of conversation with women in beer from Track Brewing Co and Brew York and Mindful Drinking workshops hosted by Club Soda which aim to emphasise positive drinking habits over abstinence.
There will also be quizzes, treasure hunts and other events held at some of Harrogate's best known bars including Major Tom's Social, The Disappearing Chin, The Harrogate Tap and Rooster's Taproom.

As in previous years, a special festival beer has been brewed at Brew York. The pineapple sour will be available at venues throughout the festival.
Women on Tap founder, Rachel Auty said:
Women on Tap CIC was formed in 2017 in Harrogate to help influence and shape a beer industry where women have equal opportunities, feel welcome, and are safe.
