The highlight of Stowmarket calendar, the museum's Beer Festival is the most anticipated event of the year. Organised in partnership with the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) the four day event, held in the Abbots' Hall Barn gives visitors an opportunity to sample up to 70 East Anglian Beers. Each year the event grows and in 2008 we sold over 6500 pints of local beer and cider!
