On Friday, three panels of judges went through two rounds of blind tasting to select the Beer Of The Festival for 2025 from a shortlist of sixteen beers prepared by our volunteers.

Chorlton Beer & Cider Festival is organised and staffed by volunteers.
Some give their time and skills for months in advance of the festival making preparations, some help out with set up and take down and some may only give a few hours selling tokens, working behind one of the bars or helping out with other important jobs across the site. They do it because they love independent beer and cider and want to encourage others to enjoy these too; they do it to support the valuable work St Clements does to provide community facilities to the people of Chorlton; they do it because it can be great fun working with like minded people.
All our volunteers are invaluable – the festival simply wouldn’t happen without them. And you can be one of them. Volunteering for Chorlton Beer & Cider Festival is now open.
