🍻 WHAT A DAY! The Great Porthleven Beer Race 2026 was an absolute cracker! 🍻
A massive, heartfelt thank you to every single person who laced up their trainers, cheered from the sidelines, and made yesterday at The Ship Inn so incredibly special. The atmosphere around the harbour was unmatched!
We’ve crunched the numbers, and you lot are officially legends:
🏃♂️ 65 participants braved the course.
🍺 130 pints of beer were carried 1.5km around the harbour.
💰 An incredible £1,145 raised for the Moors Children's Play Park!
👅 And the best stat of all? Virtually zero wastage, because every single drop was happily drunk afterwards!
🏆 A Huge Congratulations to Our Winners!
Individual Race Champion: Matthew Beswick (who, we are reliably informed, took immense pleasure in beating his brother).
Team Winners: The unstoppable Outsiders Cornwall!
🙏 A Special Shout-Out
This event wouldn't have been possible without the amazing generosity of Skinner's Brewery. A massive thank you to them for donating all the beer and the brilliant t-shirts!

Could this become a new tradition? 😉 Keep those trainers handy, because we might just have to do it all over again next year... 🏁✨
