Invitation: Beer & Cheese Festival, 11 May

Somerset’s Favourite Beer & Cheese Festival is back for 2019, and Guild members are invited to join Wild Beer Co. and Westcombe Dairy for this year’s event, on 11 May, from 12 noon to 9.00 pm, at Westcombe Farm, Somerset

The Wild Beer Co. and Westcombe Dairy have teamed up again for another family friendly festival filled with beer, cheese and fun at Lower Westcombe Farm. In 2013 local producers and neighbours The Wild Beer Co. and Westcombe Dairy joined up to create their first ever Beer & Cheese Festival as a way of saying thank you to the neighbours for putting up with the businesses’ numerous deliveries and tractors.

From humble beginnings the festival has developed into an annual family event showcasing The Wild Beer Co’s famous brews and Westcombe Dairy’s finest cheeses and local meats as well as fresh veggie and vegan options. The drinks offering is more than just excellent beer there will be craft soft drinks made on site, gin and tonics using Wild Beer’s Spirits range and tea and coffee for the designated drivers.

Both The Wild Beer Co. and Westcombe Dairy will be offering an exclusive behind the scenes look into their production with brewery and dairy tours available throughout the day as well as unique talks, tastings and pairings.

This year it’s going to be even bigger and better with live music and DJs all day across two stages including headliner, Bristol’s ‘The Rin Tins’.

Local music festival Farmfest will be in attendance with ‘Farmfest Presents’ a series of fringe events in the lead up to their festival in July. On our site, we’ll have their iconic Massey Ferguson ‘combine harvester DJ’ stage where the tunes will be playing from the amazing ‘Vintage Mobile Disco’.

As well as music there is plenty to keep you and your little ones entertained on the day including a bouncy castle, face painting for charity, sandpit, a skittles alley and lawn games.
