A local brewery is set to revive the spirit of a much-loved local beer festival this spring with a four-day celebration of independent brewing across Warwickshire.

Windmill Hill Brewery and Taproom is set to host the festival from 16 to 19 April.

The event will pay tribute to the former Leamington Beer & Music Festiva, which ran from 2013 to 2018, by bringing together local breweries, live music and street food just a stone's throw from The Band Factory – the original home of the popular festival.

Organisers say the aim is simple: to celebrate Warwickshire brewing and restore a town-centre beer festival that many residents remember fondly.

As part of the event, local Warwickshire breweries are being invited to take part in a cask and keg swap, creating a showcase of beers from across the county.

Live entertainment will feature sets from Crushed Velvet and Napton Collective, while street food traders including Yummy Sausage and Scratch Cook Social will be serving food throughout the weekend.

Festivities will begin on the Thursday with a special "Tapping the Casks" launch and a free brewery tour and tasting session.

Tickets can be bought online here.
