A beer commemorating the life of cricket icon Fred Trueman will be on sale at the fourth Skipton Beer Festival.

The ale is brewed by Skipton-based brewery Copper Dragon, which is sponsoring the festival at Skipton Town Hall from this Thursday to Saturday.

It is organised by the Keighley and Craven branch of CAMRA and will feature more than 70 real ales as well as bottled European beers and ciders.

Copper Dragon MD Steve Taylor said: “This is fast becoming a major event in the beer festival calendar and we are delighted to be named as a main sponsor once again.”
