WELCOME TO THE WEBSITE FOR THE 2010 STOKE BEER FESTIVAL!
THURSDAY 21 OCTOBER - SATURDAY 23 OCTOBER

This year's Event was special as it was the 30th Anniversary of our ever growing Beer Festival. To celebrate the occasion we relocated to the super Fenton Manor Sports Complex. This helped us achieve our biggest and best Festival yet with thousands of happy drinkers enjoying some very fine entertainment, food and most importantly - booze. We hope that you had as much fun as we did and will join us next year for another fantastic occasion.

Please have a look at some of the photos of the Festival. We have some pictures of some of the drinkers and of some Award Winners. Head to the Staff Pictures Section to have a look at some of the excellent volunteers who worked so hard to ensure everything ran so smoothly.

And yes, they are real pirates!

The winners of the Pub of the Year 2010 Awards was also announced at the Festival. Congratulations to the Blue Bell in Kidsgrove for coming first, the Congress in Longton for coming second, and the White Star in Stoke for coming third. The rest of the top ten that were nominated are (in no particular order) Burslem's Bulls Head, Silverdale's Bush, Hartshill's Greyhound, Onecote's Jervis Arms, Burslem's Leopard, Fenton's Malt 'n' Hops, and Burslem's Post Office Vaults. Bignall End Cricket Club won the Branch and Regional Club of the Year. See the photos here.
