Real Ale and Cider Bottle Beer Fest

Event Information

An unmissable event for real ale and Cider lovers!

Join us at brand new venue Rocks and Wheels Dalbeattie on Saturday 26 September 2026 from 3pm to 10pm for our second Real Ale and Cider festival, raising vital funds for Dalbeattie Community Initiative.

You can expect a carefully curated list of 25+ bottled Real Ales and 5+ bottled Real Ciders from producers near and far (list will be posted below when confirmed). The selection will include popular staples such as IPAs, blondes, stouts, and bitters as well as more unusual beers you might not have tried – and of course, last year’s favourites!

We’ll also have entertainment to be confirmed in due course.

Tickets are currently available for the early-bird price of just £6 until the end of July 2026. After this, tickets will be £10.

All tickets will include three free tasters. Tasters are a third of a pint. Further third-pint tasters are available for only £1.75 and full 500ml bottles are only £3.50 (same prices as last year).
