Paisley Real Ale Festival

The 2008 Paisley Real Ale Festival takes place as usual within Paisley Town Hall in the very heart of Paisley town centre.

This, the 21st year of the biggest beer festival in Scotland, will open to the public from 5.00pm on Wednesday 30 April, 2008. Thereafter the opening hours are as in previous years from 12 noon. The event closes on Saturday evening, May 30th, 2008 at 9:30pm.

Over 130 different real cask conditioned beers will be available with this year a focus on the south coast of England.

In a few weeks before the festival you will have an opportunity to view the 2008 beer list visiting online our sister website here.

The Main Hall within Paisley Town Hall featured real ales in 2006 from Cornwall and from Wales. Breweries large and small were represented. The Real cider and real Perry stand was also in the main hall.

While in the North Minor Hall, the best of Scotland's craft brewers were available including Renfrewshire's two breweries; Barrhead based Kelburn and from the county, Houston Brewery.

Fyne Ales ‘Maverick’ was voted as the ‘Champion Beer of the Paisley Beer Festival 2006’ in a blind tasting to the highest CAMRA specification.

Here is a flashback to Paisley 2006 during the 19th Paisley Real Ale Festival.
