"As an organisation, we are monitoring the situation closely and following all government and NHS recommendations to keep the community safe," a statement from the organisers said.
"We are continuing to be hopeful that the beer festival will be safe to go ahead at a later date."
"For anyone that has already purchased tickets online, you will get a full refund, or you can transfer them over to the new date.
"All of which has been confirmed with the ticket providers Skiddle. Tickets are available here: skiddle.com/e/13783917.
