    Knaresborough's festival feel this month will be lubricated by the return of the town's annual beer festival.

    Beer will be flowing from 5pm on Friday, August 18 to Sunday, August 20 at Knaresborough House. Entry is free.

    Knaresborough Lions has once again organised the event as part of the town's 10-day arts festival Feva.

    Drinkers will be able to choose from 22 beers and seven ciders, along with lager, Prosecco, wine, Aperol Spritz and non-alcoholic drinks. There will also be a burger bar.

    The beers include local favourites from Harrogate-based Roosters Brewing Company and other Yorkshire breweries as well as ales from further field, including Cornwall and Norfolk.

    Ciders range from a traditional scrumpy to a perry or a marmalade-flavoured offering.

    The main date is the Saturday afternoon when the beer festival will run alongside Feva's Picnic in the Park at Knaresborough House.

    Lions president Bob Godsell said:

    “We’re keeping our fingers crossed for sunshine again this year.
    “Our profits from the beer sales help finance Picnic in the Park, so we’re looking forward to people being able to enjoy the live music with a delicious pint in hand.”


    Visitors can buy a starter pack of six tokens for £12 which entitles them to three pints and a commemorative glass. Otherwise tokens will be on sale for £2 each with all pints priced at £4.

    Sessions run from Friday 5pm-11pm, Saturday midday-11pm and Sunday midday-5pm — or until the beer runs out.

    Further information, including taster notes, is available on the Knaresborough Lions Facebook page.
