Glorious sunshine attracted crowds of hundreds to a charity beer festival.

There were so many people at The Aviator’s fifth annual event on Saturday that the pub ran out of ales and even some of the lagers inside.

The festival is organised in partnership with the Rotary Club of Minster-on-Sea.

As well as a selection of around 40 ales, there was also a barbecue and live music from Blighty and Back Row Seats.

New attractions for the 2012 festival included a snuff stand and a seafood stall.
