32nd Cambridge Beer Festival

Beer List

These are the beers that have arrived so far. Not every beer will be available during every session. If a cask end sign is on show (with a price showing), then the beer is on sale. Descriptions of the beers within this programme are derived and adapted from various sources including the Good Beer Guide, Web sites, the breweries themselves and our cellar staff who ordered the beers.

The Good Beer Guide is on sale at our products stall and is considered by many beer drinkers to be the Bible for British beer drinkers.

To help you select your beers we have included some points of interest including the brewery's location and the year it started production.

We again feature Cambridgeshire beers by grouping them together on their own bar. We have this year also grouped together beers from the rest of East Anglia.
