You voted, we counted. The winners of the beer and cider of the 36th Colchester Real Ale and Cider Festival are:

Beer

Karas Buizza by Watsons Brewery, Colchester

A mighty 7.4% dark ‘mild’ from Mark Watson – and sadly this was the only cask of it.

Cider

Filthy Tramp Juice by Apple Cottage, Baldock

A well-deserved award for this festival regular.
