The beers have been crafted to include a range of “exciting flavours” such as elderberry, orange, chocolate and raspberry.

There are a number of overseas entries available throughout the festival including Contender EPA from Boxing Cat Brewery, China and Aggro Bear from SunsetBrew in Brazil.

A range of British beers are also being made available including Bunny Hop from the Prurity Brewery, Choc & Orange Stout from the Black Sheep Brewery and Old Sea-Dog brewed by Camerons Ltd in Hartlepool.

There are also three UK ciders being served along side the craft ales all of which can be sampled in special third-of-a-pint glasses for the price of a pint.
