Northants CAMRA held their annual round of judging of the County’s beers at the Northampton County Beer Festival held at Becket’s Park on 30th to 31st May.

The overall Champion Beer of the Festival was judged to be Egyptian Cream from Nene Valley Brewery; a 4.5% Nitro Milk Stout. The judges said this beer had a lovely balance of sweetness and bitterness in the flavour. Great head retention and a smooth silky mouth feel.

The winning beers (and breweries) from each style of ale were:

Session Bitters - 66 Degrees - Kings Cliffe Brewery
