Abbeydale Brewery

8 Aizlewood Road, Sheffield

http://www.abbeydalebrewery.co.uk

Abbeydale Brewery is a well-established independent brewery founded in 1996 in Sheffield, blending tradition with experimentation through a core range of classic pale ales and bitters—most notably Moonshine, which accounts for around 50% of production—alongside a weekly rotating special from its Brewers Emporium and Funk Dungeon sour/barrel-ageing program. As of October 2024, it became the first 100% employee-owned brewery in the UK under Sheffield Beerworks EOT Ltd, ensuring its community-oriented ethos continues through collective ownership. Producing over 220 barrels weekly with a team of highly trained staff, Abbeydale now offers a diverse portfolio across cask, keg, can, and export channels—including gluten-free and vegan-friendly options. A local favourite, Reddit users routinely praise Moonshine and their hoppy canned and dark beers, calling Abbeydale “the best for their traditional cask ales” and noting that Heathen and other specials were “an absolute revelation” when first released.

There will be 3 sessions across the weekend, each lasting 5 hours and there will be different beers pouring across all 3. So each session will have a variety of new and exciting beers to try, should you wish to attend more than one session. Your ticket secures you entry for the session of your choosing, your commemorative FCF branded glassware and a free 1/3 of Full Circle beer upon arrival. While you're at the festival you can purchase beers from any brewery of your choosing using our token system. This is the perfect chance for any beer lover to sample new beers from various breweries up and down the UK and chat directly to the teams behind these beers. We will be joined by 3 local street food vendors who will be providing delicious scran for everyone all weekend. Food vendors will take card payments, not tokens. The entire festival is a cashless event, please ensure you have your card when attending.
