Large beer festival on the Knavesmire. Well organised and well attended by all ages, male and female.
| Beer | ABV | Score | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dark Star - Winter Meltdown | 5.00 | | Golden brown spicy beer. The addition of ginger makes for an interesting taste and nose. Quite drying but decent beer. |
| Ilkley - Black | 3.70 | | Near black dark mild with bitter roasted malts. Smooth and mellow. |
| Thornbridge / Thornbridge Hall - Browne | 4.30 | | Ruby coloured beer with great body. Floral fruity nose and fruits stay long in the mouth. Decent. |
| Silver Brewhouse (formerly Raw) - Apollo Summer Bitter | 3.80 | | Light amber in colour. Hoppy with citrus in the finish. Not drying for a hoppy bitter. Good stuff. |
| Rudgate - Farmers Harvest | 3.90 | | Pale hoppy floral bitter. Sessionable but a bit plain. Not at all complex. |
| Haworth Steam - WD Austerity | 3.80 | | Blonde beer with some understated hoppy undertones. However very watery body and quite flat. Not great. |
