At least half of the ales will be brewed within 20 miles of our area.

The event will be opened at 5pm on the 15th by Matt Hampson the ex-Tigers player. Matt was an emerging talent who's world was rocked by a serious spinal injury while training with England under 21s. Paralysed from the neck down he faced the toughest challenge of his life and formed the Matt Hampson Foundation. The aim is to inspire and support young people seriously injured through sport. He now devotes his life to raising funds for those people.
