FOR the sixth year in a row the Cleobury Beer Festival will bring some spring sunshine into the lives of ale lovers.

Last year saw record crowds descend to Cleobury Mortimer and organisers are hoping for the same again.

This year will see a record number of ales and ciders on show sourced from a 25 mile radius.

Once again the festival is a celebration of St George's Day and will take place at Cleobury Mortimer Golf Course.

As well as a fine selection of drinks on show, there will be the much-anticipated open mic entertainment once again headed by Cleobury resident Aaron Booton. Aaron will performing a mixture of current chart hits as well as some old classics.

2014 saw 12 hours of constant entertainment from Aaron and other talent local musicians.

Although the event is a beer festival it has a family feel to it with plenty of soft drinks available for under 18s and the music is something the whole family can enjoy.

Local food including burgers and hot dogs will also be available throughout the day.

"This project was started by three local lads who wanted to celebrate St George's Day and showcase just how fantastic our local area is," said organiser David Pain.

"Now into its sixth year it has stood the test of time and has continued to grow. "Rest assured we have plenty of surprises up our sleeves to once again make it the best one yet."

The event takes place on Friday April 24 and Saturday April 25.

Tickets are £5 in advance, which includes a pint glass and a pint, and there is free admission for under 18s.

Tickets are available from the golf club or from www.cleoburybeerfestival.bigcartel.com
