Real ale enthusiasts will be making a beeline for Otley on Friday for the town’s beer festival.

Sixty-two draught beers and a variety of European bottled beers, real ciders and perry will be served up at the civic centre and hundreds of people are expected. They can enjoy live music and food from noon to 11pm on Friday and Saturday.

Festival publicity officer Mark Rotheray said: “We have a lot of beers on offer. Everything is in place for another great festival.”

Tickets for the festival, which raises funds for All Saints Parish Church and charities, cost £5.
