The Great Exhibition of Prize Ales 2025

Back for its triumphant third year, THE BEER FESTIVAL LIKE NO OTHER returns for 2025! Amazing beer, food and live music are all on offer at this unique celebration of the history of brewing, all taking place at Kirkstall Brewery.

Kirkstall has once again challenged breweries across the UK to dig deep into their local history, and exhibit beers with a link to the past. Expect to be transported back in time and taste beers that are decades or even hundreds of years old, brewed especially for the event and served by the brewers themselves. Prize Medals will be awarded to beers judged by a specially-selected panel.

As well as the cream of the UK brewing scene, expect delicious street food and some of the best local bands.

There is a future in our past, and you can taste it at THE GREAT EXHIBITION OF PRIZE ALES!
