Ale fans from around the world visited St Ives to sample some of the liquid gold on offer at the town's annual beer festival.
In what is believed to be the most successful event to date, more than 1,000 visitors held a glass aloft at the event with some coming from as far afield as Europe and Asia.
Organisers Gerry and Jan Wills said it had been a festival to remember.
"It was a great festival with a good crowd in," they said.
"The staff were brilliant all way through.
"We had nearly 1,000 customers and over 5,000 pints beer sold plus wines, ciders and bottled beers."
The festival ran on Friday and Saturday and centred around the St Ives Guildhall.
During the two-day event in which the seaside resort basked in glorious summer sunshine, a total of £490 was collected for local charities.
Mr Wills said the barrels to be drained first were from not so far down the road – the Penzance Brewing Company which is based at nearby Crowlas. The company's No 9 ale and Trink ale were first and third to be sold out. Sharps' brewery's Juniperus was second to sell out.
