On the seventeenth day, in the ninth month in the Year of our lord two thousand and sixteen (17th September 2016).
Men and women from as far a field as Scholes, Crossgates, Aberford, Thorner, Garforth and even Castleford will make the treacherous journey across yorkshire hill and dale to join the fine people of Barwick-in-Elmet to celebrate the grand old Yorkshire Tradition of standing around supping fine Yorkshire ale and having a good old fashioned natter about ale, the weather and what other subjects tha likes.
This year will be 8th annual beer festivals in Barwick and we promise it will be the biggest and hopefully the best yet.
We have an unprecedented 20 Cask conditioned ales, 8 different wines and a large selection (288 Bottles) of traditional Ciders, bottled continental lagers and craft beers.
We will also be serving up fine Yorkshire fayre in the form of "pie and peas" to help soak up that beer and hopefully keep you drinking into the early evening or until there's nowt left.
Should the conversation run dry before the bar does we will also be providing some entertainment in the form of live music and a few traditional bar room games.
Entry will be a reet good, and inflation busting five (£5.00)Yorkshire pounds. For which you shall receive a commemorative glass, souvenir programme and a pint of beer, or 2 halves should you prefer.
All proceeds from the festival will go to supporting the Barwick in Elmet maypole trust.
We look forward seeing you all on the 17th of September. Cheers, Prost, Salut, Yammas, Nostrovia, azzoobahnon and bottoms up.
