WOODFEST 2021 (WF3) CANCELLED
Hi all,
We had hoped to hold in May, like it was planned for last year. Now because of the worsening situation currently and thus being unable to plan anything for the foreseeable future, it has now been decided to cancel it and hopefully have it in 2022, when the whole situation should change for the better by then.
Any news concerning the latter will be posted on the new Woodfest 2022 page.
In the meantime we need a volunteer for two of the committee positions, Products and Tombola. Anyone interested can you please get in touch by email on festival@spbw.beer
Thank you for your patience so far and carry on drinking and stay in good spirits and health.
Cheers!
Aidan Kerrigan
Woodfest 2022 Organiser and the Woodfest 2022 committee

CHAMPION BEER OF BRITAIN IN THE WOOD 2018.
The judging of the second Champion Beer of the Wood will be taking place at North Shields today. The judges will be making their selection from beers across the country and deciding which one has most benefited from being served from a wooden barrel. Last year’s champion beer ‘Haymaker’ from Hook Norton brewery is again in the running but with even more brewers submitting an entry it will be a highly competitive competition. Once again the judges will be led by prominent beer writer and expert Roger Protz
