A NEW drinks festival celebrating local products being held in Malton later this month.

Taste The Magic of Yorkshire Beer, Wine and Gin Festival will be held at the Milton Rooms on July 21, from 3pm to 11pm.

Organiser Howard Kinder, of Horsetown Brewery, said: “It follows on from the beer festival I did last year and this time I’ve bought it back into Malton and included Ryedale Vineyard, McMillans of Malton and Food 2 Remember.

“We will have a range of our beers, Ryedale Wines are doing a wine bar and McMillans are doing a gin bar.”

He said the event would also have two live bands and a 1980s disco to finish the night off.

Tickets are £6 or two for £10 and include a festival glass. For more information visit horsetownbeers.com
