Welcome to Rugby CAMRA 30th Beer Festival.

Thirty years on from its inception, Rugby Beer Festival is still going strong. More people are turning to cask ale and the microbrewery explosion still gathering pace there has never been a better time to be a real ale drinker.  So, welcome one and all to our 30th festival. As always we have sourced beers from across the British Isles to bring you an unrivalled choice from local breweries, new breweries and some long established ones. I’m sure everyone will find a few to suit their palate. We also have a great range of ciders and perrys and a selection of bottled beers.

As always, our infamous tombola and auction will be up and running with plenty of prizes to be won. Food will be available throughout the festival including the ever popular pork batches. Saturday night sees the return of Dave Pepper who will be entertaining you from about 8pm. Anyone wishing to join CAMRA, see Mike on the Membership stand to see what deals are on offer. 

We are again supporting the Warwickshire and Northants Air Ambulance. Collection buckets will be going round, so please be generous to this great charity.

Our thanks go to the Thornfield Bowling Club for again letting us use their premises, to Sue and Chris at the Squirrel for supplying the pub games, Wood Farm brewery for sponsoring the glasses, Dow Bridge brewery for supplying beers, Atomic brewery for brewing Radiation, and to all the CAMRA volunteers that have helped me organise the festival and will be working at the festival over the weekend. Last but not least, thanks to you, the drinkers for turning up and sampling the beers. I hope you all enjoy this one as we could not do it without you

See you at the bar, cheers Steve Durrant (Beer Festival Organiser)
