There are still some tickets for our Thursday Evening Preview Session available. Any tickets not already purchased from the Beech Inn or reserved by e-mail will be available on the gate.

Following on from the popular tutored cider and perry tastings we have held for last couple of years, for 2014 we are expanding to offer a choice of tutored tasting sessions – Cider & Perry or Real Ale.
At each session, an expert in your chosen tipple will guide you through samples of a the full range of styles and tastes available within beer or cider / perry. They will also take time to answer your questions about real ale or real cider/perry.
Both sessions will take place at 12 noon on Saturday 5th July – an hour before the festival opens to the public.
The cost will be £15 which will include entry to the festival for Saturday, your glass and festival programme, plentiful samples of beer or cider/perry during the hour long tasting and a £5 token to use after the festival opens to the public.
Limited places are available – to book your place, e-mail tastings@chorltonbeerfestival.org.uk including your name, size of your party and a contact phone number.
