East Bristol Brewery Trail on Saturday 27th & Sunday 28th August 2016

Posted on: 22 Aug 2016

If there's one thing Bristolians pride themselves on it's our capacity to drink vast quantities of beer - so it's a bit of luck all things ale-related can be celebrated with the East Bristol Brewery Trail on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th August 2016.

 

Run to coincide with the start of Bristol Beer Week (Saturday 27 August to Friday 2 September), this celebration of the malt, hop and barley beverage will see five of Bristol's breweries opening their doors to the public for much beer appreciation and quaffage.

So what are the five breweries then?, we hear you cry in palate-wettening anticipation. Well, let us tell you. Good Chemistry, Moor Beer Company, Arbor, Left Handed Giant and Dawkins will be throwing open their doors on both days for plenty of ale suppage as well as putting on live music and loads of delicious street food to soak it all up. 

 

All the breweries will be promoting the event over the coming weeks on social media with the hashtag #EastBrisBrewTrail.

 

The event runs from 11am to 8pm on both days and is free. You can pick up a map at the breweries, and anyone who collects a stamp from each venue will be entered in a prize draw to win beer from each brewery. To stay up to date and to keep your whistle suitably whetted, you can visit the event's Facebook page.
