The festival is being held to raise money for charity and this year the proceeds will be used to buy some items for the Portchester Community Centre.
Carol Mertens, centre manager, said: ‘Portchester Beer Festival is an established event in the local community providing a fun filled evening showcasing the best of local and regional ales. But what is so special about the event is the money we raise for the community centre which is itself a registered charity.’
Portchester Community Centre provides a wide variety of events from toddler groups to social activities for the elderly.
