The beer line-up

Grouped together in style categories, beer bars will be focused on pouring the best pale ales, IPAs, fruit, sour beers and more with an emphasis on freshness and perfect summer pairings.

Highlights on this year’s line-up include a 12% blueberry cheesecake stout by Omnipollo x Dugges Bryggeri’s Anagram (aka the beer that took Summer Beer Thing’s heart back in 2017) and Prairie Artisan Ales BOMB – a 13% imperial stout aged on espresso beans, chocolate, vanilla beans, and ancho chilli peppers.

Schöfferhofer’s converted ice cream van will be there too, covering all your grapefruit beer cravings (ice cream lovers are warned, there’s only beer to be found in here).

There will also be a cocktail bar courtesy of Bring & Mix serving bespoke cocktails – and maybe even a few cheeky beer concoctions.
