Cheers! Are you one of the people raising a glass at these Sheffield beer festivals from down the years?

Beer festivals are a great place to catch up with friends, spend a relaxing afternoon and try new beers and ciders you may never have come across.

We have dug out some great pictures from the Steel City Beer Festivals going back to the late 90s and 00s.

See who you can spot in these pictures going back to 1999.
