Whats to drink?
We want everyone to be able to have their own flavour to your festival so we've laid on a collection of wines, beers, ales, ciders, lager, gins, pimms and soft drinks to quench any pallette
We'll be slowly announcing these over the weeks coming up to the festival so keep tuned as we reveal more
Indigenous beers inspired by indigenous folk!
Following years of intense and hedonistic imbibing and brewing in pursuit of delicious ales, Head Brewer Kevin Brady invites you to share the indigenous experience. Kevin has been brewing since 2011 and having successfully showcased some of his beers at local village events, he has now set up his own Micro Brewery in the village of Chaddleworth, West Berkshire. The focus is on producing hand crafted ales on a relatively small scale that offer something a little different.
April 2016 saw AMMO Belle American Pale Ale voted as Beer of the Festival at Reading Ale and Cider Festival. An accolade that the brewery is extremely proud of.
At the festival we have 2 beers available from Kevin....
