THE 2018 Bransgore Rotary Beer Festival was again blessed with fine weather.

There were 86 beers on offer and a vast variety of live music from country and western to ska.

Organiser Ian Kendal said: "I am absolutely delighted with the turnout, the weather and how all the hard work from Bransgore Rotary Club and its wives and friends has paid off.

"I think we might just top £25,000 for our chosen local and international charities. A fantastic achievement all round.

"We had 82 real ales and because of demand had to bring in a further four in for the Sunday afternoon. Most of the beers were ones that you would not usually find in this area.

"We had 42 different ciders ranging from fruity to traditional and some local."

Camping and caravan sites promoted this event a year in advance. Music was provided by Ratrace and Double Barrel, the Fiery Fiddler, Lucas Raye and Johnson Van Dyke.

The Burton and Bransgore Scouts provided burgers, hot dogs and gourmet wraps.
