There will be more than 100 real ales, ciders and bottled beers.

Today’s evening session runs from 6.30pm to 11pm.

The event has been put together by the local branch of the Campaign for Real Ale.

Entertainment will be provided by The New Party Collective, Gosport Silver Band and Jack Rabbit.

Proceeds from the festival will go to the charity Macmillan Cancer Support.

Camra member Martyn Constable said: ‘There are some tickets left for tonight if people get there early enough.’
