Occombe Beer Festival
4 - 5 Jun 2010 - Occombe Farm
 Welcome to Occombe's 5th Beer Festival - a two day event featuring around 60 real ales from across the Westcountry, local ciders and perry. There will also be a Pimm's Bar, live music from local bands, a BBQ and hog roast.
Occombe Beer Festival is a fundraising event, run in aid of Torbay Coast & Countryside Trust (registered charity no. 1077561). All profits from the festival are ploughed back into the Trust's work across Torbay, looking after some of our most important wildlife and heritage sites.
The Beer List
The full list of real ales will appear here closer to the festival. We will be selecting a wide variety of beers from breweries in Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset - including some old favourites and new arrivals too. You can download last year's Beer List here
Tickets
Occombe Beer Festival is a popular event and a number of tickets will be available in advance, allowing you to skip the entrance queue. More details about how to buy advance tickets will appear here soon. A large number of tickets will be available each evening too. Last year the event was very popular and we anticipate similar numbers again. When we reach our maximum capacity we will have to turn people away, please arrive early to avoid disappointment.
