Ale & Steam Weekends |
North Cotswold Branch of the Campaign for Real Ale |
Celebrating 10 Years
These popular events started in 2009, so in 2019 we will be celebrating the 10th year of holding them. In total so far, 17 Ale & Steam Weekends have been held, detailed below. At the Railway’s request, we will revert next year to holding just one Ale & Steam Weekend, like we did in 2009. But this event will for the first time be open over 3 days (Friday to Sunday) at both Winchcombe & Toddington Stations.
Great Beers
The present proposal is for Toddington to have beers which have previously won the best beer award at one of the Ale & Steam Weekends. Some of these beers may no longer be available, so in order to make-up the required total we may include beers which won at the Moreton Beer Festival event. As normal, Winchombe will have the local beers, plus a selection of other national beers.
