Keeping it Real!<br />
BECCLES BEER FESTIVAL RETURNS TO PUBLIC HALL<br />
Now in its 6 th year, the Beccles Beer<br />
Festival has become one of the most<br />
popular events in Beccles calendar and a<br />
celebration of local real ales, ciders and<br />
craft lager...<br />
Last year more than 1500 people visited<br />
the 3 day beer festival, drinking over<br />
4,000 pints from 22 different breweries,<br />
all within 30 miles of Beccles.<br />
Organisers Graham Elliott and Beccles<br />
Lido Director, Shaun Crowley, told <strong>Bounce</strong><br />
<strong>Magazine</strong> “This is the biggest beer festival<br />
in the region and real ale enthusiasts<br />
travel from all over East Anglia.<br />
It’s not just a celebration of local ales but<br />
it’s held in Beccles Public Hall to raise<br />
funds for Beccles Lido, and run by Public<br />
Hall and Lido volunteers – and so it also<br />
celebrates these two fantastic community<br />
run Beccles attractions!”<br />
From Friday-Sunday 17-19 <strong>November</strong>, the 6 th Beccles Beer Festival<br />
will feature some very special ales not available on draft anywhere<br />
else, as well as festival stalwart Green Jack Ripper!<br />
There will be live music on Friday and Saturday night, with local<br />
festival favourites Owl & Wolves headlining on Friday and back<br />
by popular request Murphys Lore on Saturday night, with their<br />
energetic and high spirited mix music. Sunday is a more relaxed day<br />
and families with well behaved children are welcome.<br />
As usual, the Public Hall will also have a fully licensed bar selling<br />
wines, spirits and soft drinks for the non-ale drinkers, as well as<br />
festival regular Daryl Ling’s bar skittles; and there will be a good<br />
selection of hot and cold snacks to complement the beer, served by<br />
Lido volunteers.<br />
So make this a weekend to get over to Beccles – and why not use<br />
the bus or train so that you can really enjoy a selection of the tipples<br />
on offer?<br />
And if you don’t drink them dry, the Lido team will have a pop up<br />
beer festival as well as mulled wine and cider at Beccles Christmas<br />
Lights Switch On Friday 24 th <strong>November</strong>.<br />
