Kidderminster Beer & Cider Festival
Kidderminster Beer and Cider Festival 2021 ended on Saturday, November 6th. It was a resounding success, with only 5% of the 378 gallons of beer left!
50 volunteers put in a total of 1,000 hours over 3 days to ensure that the 806 paying visitors, and representatives of partner charity HELP and sponsors, enjoyed a great event. And once again, Kidderminster Town Hall proved itself to be a popular central and accessible venue.
When asked what visitors enjoyed most, they said it was brilliant to meet with other festival-goers and friends, socialise, enjoy the atmosphere and try a far greater range of beer styles than is usually possible anywhere else. Also popular is the fact that Kidderminster Town Hall offers plenty of seating with subtle, non-intrusive background music adding to the atmosphere, plus Saturday night live entertainment from The Follicles.
See you all again, in November this year!

CAMRA's Online Pub Locator & Guide: WhatPub
This is a great website for finding out about pubs, and it can locate those nearest to you. In most areas of the UK, it has been updated with the latest services (take away meals, etc) being provided. If you're a CAMRA member whilst out and about you can record your beer scores in WhatPub, as it's beer scores that determine which pubs are selected for inclusion in the Good Beer Guide. Full details are available here: Beer Scoring and the Good Beer Guide

In August 2021 we held the Wyre Forest Real Ale Trail (during the nationwide Great British Beer Festival at your Local campaign). We were pleased with the footfall from the Ale Trail in our leading pubs and all the landlords involved in the Trail were pleased to see new faces and appreciated our efforts to support them and CAMRA. All prizes have now been awarded.
