The Barrels has announced today that it will host an Oktoberfest this year.

A post on The Barrels Facebook page said:

ā€œThis year we have decided to do something a little different with the beer festival. It will now be held on Friday 30th September, Saturday 1st and Sunday 2nd of October and will be called Oktoberfest.

ā€œThere will be a selection of beers on sale in the Brewery bar and a great selection of bands on over the weekend. This is a ticketless event and we will be taking donations on the gate and around the yard at different times of the day with the monies going to local charities.

ā€œThe food will have a German theme to it and all proceeds from the kitchen will also be going to charity. Thank you for your continued support.ā€
