The Accrington Stanley Supporters Club, Accrington Stanley FC & East Lancs Camra are hoping to launch the 1st “Accrington Stanley Beer Festival” which is hopefully going to take place on Friday 31st October & Saturday 1st November.

The amalgamation of the Accrington Stanley Supporters Club. Accrington Stanley FC and the East Lancashire Branch of Camra are hoping to have upwards of Twenty Real Ales on Offer mostly from Breweries within a 25-mile radius as well as Scrumpy Cider, Perries and free non-alcoholic drinks for any designated Drivers.

With the launch itself being on Halloween we are trying to have a few Halloween/Firework Special Brews on tap, there will also be specially commissioned glasses available to Buy at the Event with the Clubs inscription which in years to come will become Collectors Items in themselves. There will also hopefully be a programme, which will be given away on entry, which will list the Beers, Sponsors and include a local pub crawl to encourage visitors to visit the Local Pubs.

The Event it is hoped will help promote Real Ales, The Club itself and the facilities it has to offer as well as being a good social Event that can become part of the Hynburn Calendar, as well as building on the Success of the Current Supporters Club Exhibition “The Club That Wouldn’t Die” at Accrington Library which runs until the 29th August .

The Supporters Club are on the lookout for any companies or individuals who would like to help Sponsor the Event either as an Overall Sponsor or just by sponsoring a Barrel of Beer with prices staring at just £70 it is a chance to perhaps advertise your company in a fun way.

We really do need your help to bring this idea to fruition
