“Bexhill based band Loose Ends are appearing at Saturday Lunchtime and we hope this session, which is from 11 am to 3 pm, will attract families as well as the serious CAMRA beer tasters who like to travel by train.
“On the Saturday evening we have music from The Chandeliers and The Deep Sea Drivers, as well as over 35 Beers and Ciders to stimulate the taste buds.”
Beers on offer this year come from a number of small craft breweries from both Sussex and as far afield as Scotland.
