ON SATURDAY 19th THERE IS BRANCH SOCIAL from 1pm hosted by Alan (07864 020570).

Around 25 to 30 one off cask conditioned Real Ales from around the UK plus Ciders & Perries and draught craft beers

The initial Beer List is available.

Please note that, as always, not all the beers will be available at any one time as they will be cycled through the pub / beer tent over the weekend.

The White Horse will be putting on their usual first beer festival of the year always a great event.

This will be a chance to visit some of Windsor's not so well known pubs.

A Branch Social visiting pubs that are under the RADAR that didn’t get a beer score last year. Social to be led by Steve Goodall.

Meeting in the Duke of Connaught at 3pm, and possibly calling at The Piper, The Hope, The Queen Victoria, Windsor Castle, Prince Harry and the Duchess of Cambridge

A celebration of the independent beer scene in the UK with a range of fantastic breweries, delicious street food and a line-up of live DJs across the weekend. Just 5 minutes from the Elizabeth Line!

More details and brewery announcements to follow, along with a range of fringe events surrounding the festivities.

There will be 15 breweries in total, with 11 of the brewers showing up in person. All will be bringing two to four beers along, making about 50 craft beers.

Familiar faces to all beer drinkers in the area - the wonderful folks from Double Barrelled are going to be repping for Reading! We hosted the DB Team last year for an amazing TTO at AHP Maidenhead, and you'll likely have seen their beers at a lot of the fantastic local pubs around here!

And our pals at Otherworld will be joining us all the way from sunny Edinburgh to pour all weekend at #maidenheadcraftbeerfestival - we love this lot and can't wait to introduce them to the SL6 properly!

Both breweries are going to be pouring a range of their finest - you'll be able to chat with them about their beers and get nerdy over a pint with them in person - and we can't wait to see what they've got in store.

Instead of drinks being primarily served up by volunteer enthusiasts, this festival will welcome the brewers themselves to come and pour their own beers, which will give punters a chance to chat with them and tap into their crafting process.

The offering will range from ‘sensible session sunshine beers’ to ‘very silly barrel-aged strong dark beers’ – and there will be lagers for those who don’t go for ale.

There will be ‘safe options’ from three fairly well-known breweries in the area; Siren Craft Brew and Elusive Brewing, both based in Wokingham, and Indie Rabble from Windsor.

Other breweries include: Double Barrelled Brewery, Tilehurst; Otherworld Brewing, Edinburgh; Great Beyond Brewery, Hoxton; New Invention Brewery, Walsall; and Attic Brew Co, Stirchley.

BUY TICKETS £10+booking fee -- you'll get an exclusive festival glass and access to the event site for your chosen session.

3rd-4th May 12:00-17:00 | 18:00-23:00
