Real-ale lovers sank a few pints making the second Haworth Beer Festival the “best yet”.
About 200 people attended the event held in Haworth Old School Rooms, which began on Friday and ran until last night. The 2013 festival was dedicated to former Kings Arms licensee Terry Barnes, 76, who died last month.
Punters drank a special beer brewed in his memory, especially for the festival, called Merry Terry after his nickname.
Merry Terry created by Keighley-based Goose Eye Brewery proved a huge success and sold out very quickly.
The event began with a corporate networking event where business people were also invited to take a ‘blind’ taste test, in which participants wore goggles that simulated the effects of being partially-sighted.
The taste test raised about £150 for Sight Airedale which supports blind and partially-sighted people in Keighley.
At the main beer festival a total of 25 different beers and a variety of ciders and lagers were on offer.
