Farnham Beerex

Courtyard imbibers

Few Real Ale enthusiasts in England will be unaware of Farnham Beer Exhibition (Beerex) and the fame of this event has spread much further afield.
Thousands of imbibers descend on the town for a few days in Spring to sample the year's selection of fine ales, ciders and perries.
Beerex is organised jointly by Farnham Lions Club, Farnham Maltings, CAMRA, and a number of enthusiastic volunteers and is held in the historic Farnham Maltings.
75 beers are available from 35-40 breweries and all tastes of bitter, ciders and perries are catered for.
Hot food is available from the in-house caterers and a BBQ is on offer in the courtyard.
Live music is played at each session .
The 2011 event produced a record £32,000 to Farnham Lions Club, which is returned into the community, meeting charitable needs.
Tickets go on sale on a cold and frosty Sunday morning innearly March with early punters arriving from about 03.00 and tea,coffee and bacon butties are available from about 05.30

As mentioned on our sponsors page, Badshot Lea Van Hire has been supplying us with vehicles to collect heavy items for Beerex for some years, and are very supportive of Lions in general. Their support this year has once more brought the supply of vehicles to us free of charge, saving a considerable sum and in return we carry their advertisement below.
