Festival of Brewers

Festival of Brewers is a brewer’s market style event, showcasing small & independent breweries.

Due to COVID-19, on hiatus for 2020, back in 2021.

[Festival of Brewers @festofbrewers]

Hi all,

Due to the COVID-19 global pandemic, I have decided not to run the festival in 2020.

Over the last two years, I've received terrific support & feedback & I'm looking forward to bringing it back in 2021.

​Cheers
Mike

Happy New Year folks!

We've submitted the charity money collected at last year's #festivalofbrewers.

Thank you to those of you who kindly donated; we raised £55.69 for Leeds Heartwatch!

🙏🙏🙏

@festofbrewers One of the best beer festivals by miles and definitely a little well kept secret from the many!

Can’t wait for next year 🍺

It's been over a week since #FestivalofBrewers took place & it's time for a few thank yous!

First of all, thank you to all those who came along, it was great to see so many faces & the feedback was excellent 🙏

[The Cider Cask @cidercask]

So pleased to have waved the cider flag at @festofbrewers Leeds this weekend. A real eye opener for some beer drinkers with @PerrysCider Grey Heron and @RossCider Wild Cider on tap, bottled cider from @Pilton, Thornborough and @Dunhamciderman plus @BlakStoc @Abavas_vini

[Mill Valley Taproom & Venue @millvalley2015]

We had a fantastic time at @festofbrewers yesterday.

It was great to meet new people, see some old faces and we made some great contacts going forward.

Chocolate Orange Stout was also the first beer of the festival to run out.
