We visited Elland Beer Festival on invitation from festival organiser Dave Weston, close friend of Rory’s father Chris. We were on a learning curve as we plan to hold our own beer festival in Rory’s home village of Ackworth next March to raise funds for Rory’s foundation at CRY.
We had a most enjoyable evening and learnt a great deal in preparation for our own event next year.
The photo shows our fact finding (and beer testing)team on the night.
