Bringing together a selection of the best micro and independent craft breweries from across the UK, it will feature a diverse range of beers.

Breweries announced so far include Beer Ink, Caps Off, Strange Times, Farm Yard Brew Co, Electric Bear Brewing, Mad Squirrel and Hackney Church Brew Co, with more to be announced soon.

In addition to the delicious drinks, visitors can also look forward to award-winning artisan street food, live music and entertainment throughout the weekend.
Due to take place from 19 to 20 May 2023, tickets are priced at £15 and include entry, free samples, souvenir glass, festival programme, a goodie bag and opportunities to meet the brewers, plus plenty of live music, fun and games.
