Between Friday 27th and Sunday 29th June, Rutland CAMRA hosted their 12th annual beer festival at Rutland County Museum in Oakham.
For beer fans and local people alike, this three-day festival was a great opportunity to try a great selection of local beer, wine and gin, as well as connect with the community and enjoy live music and performances.
Oakham Nub News attended the beer festival on Sunday 29th June, catching brilliant live performances from Rutland Morris, the D'Ukes of Rutland Ukulele Band, and Oakham Swing Dance.
