THE sixth Aireborough Beer Festival returns on Thursday, June 13 and runs until Saturday, June 15.

The event - at Guiseley Theatre - is organised by the partnership of Aireborough Rotary Club, Guiseley Theatre and Rawdon Parish Church.

All profits from the event will be divided equally between each partner, who will determine how their share is spent.

As usual there will be five sessions: Thursday, June 13, 7pm to 10.30pm, Friday and Saturday, June 14 and 15, from noon to 4.30pm and 5.30pm to 10.30pm.

Admission will be by ticket only, which cost £10 for Early Birds and £12 on the day, to include two beer tokens and a programme with detailed drinks summaries.

Craft beers and lagers, cider and Prosecco will be available and White House Gin will also offer rum.

Tickets are on sale at www.ticketsource.co.uk/guiseleytheatre/e-qamaxe

A spokesperson for the organisers said: "It makes sense to book in advance as there will be a maximum limit on each session.

"This year there is no particular theme to the offering but there will be 30 beers and ciders in a range of casks and kegs, something to suit every taste, from IPAs to Stouts and Porters, Lagers, Ciders and Sours. They range from a very light and quaffable Fruit Weisse coming in at just 2.5 per cent to a hefty mouthful of a Belgian Triple IPA at 8.1 per cent.

"Beers have been sourced from local, well known and popular breweries including Horsforth, Brass Castle, Goose Eye and Old Mill, but our dedicated team of researchers must be applauded for looking further afield.

"Your brewery choice will include Time and Tide from Deal, Lervig from Stavanger in Norway, Omnipollo from Sweden’s Sundbyberg, Schofferhofer from twin town Dortmund and Belgium’s Achouffe.

"Perhaps the best brewery title has to be St Mars of the Desert from Sheffield. Puzzling names for beers to taste are Munich Hell, Angry White Pyjamas and Love You, Bye.

"Music to suit all tastes comprises on Thursday Hot Liquor Tank, Friday Sam Hutchinson, Purple Bananas and The Resistance and Saturday Cornell Daley, Music Box, Oracle and Re:Boot.

"For food, Burger X will be with us Friday night and all day Saturday offering a range of burgers as well as dirty fries (including a vegan option). Available throughout will be a selection of cold sandwiches, pies and pasties, crisps and bar snacks."
