Indie Beer Week is back in 2021
Indie Beer Week is a celebration of Independent Irish craft brewing in all corners of Ireland from 17th - 23rd May. You'll order your pack and then join in online for guided testings and meet the brewer sessions. The online events will be held on Thursday 20th to Saturday 22nd May 2021. We're working with the guys in Beer Cloud and Craic Beer Community to bring you these online events!
Don't wait till May though - take the time to seek out beer from your local independent brewery where real beer is made by real people!
During Indie Beer Week, we'll be encouraging everyone to celebrate their local independent breweries and there'll be lots of chance to shout out and big up the community as well as win prizes!!!
