Thanks to everyone who supported the 24th Ayrshire Real Ale Festival, despite the best efforts of Storm Amy in disrupting travel. We hope you all had a great time. Beer of the Festival was Jennings Sneck Lifter, and the Cider of the Festival was Dudda’s Tun Cherry Cider.

Next year’s festival dates are Thursday 1 October – Saturday 3 October 2026.

Here’s a video clip of some photos taken at the festival, but the uncropped photos can be viewed here: https://www.ayrshirebeerfestival.co.uk/photos-2025-festival/
