The vegan beers on offer are Blue Nose, from Yorkshire based brewery Rudgate, and Hen in Black from Cambridge brewers Elgoods.

Blue Nose is a blueberry wheat beer, which is available in cask for the first time at the Festival. It is dark blue-purple in colour with bittersweet flavours of blueberries, cloves and spice. The beer contains no finings so is naturally hazy.

Hen in Black is a traditional black stout which has aromas of espresso, chocolate and liquorice and has been brewed especially for the festival without the use of fish-derived finings, making it suitable for vegans.
