London Beer Week, now in its fourth year, is a seven-day festival which takes place across the city - with diverse events happening each day of the week.
The UK's first ever Belgian craft beer festival takes place at Oval Space in Hackney, July 21st - 22nd. The intimate event will give beer lovers across London a chance to sample Belgium's unique beer culture, along with the food and music.
Opening its doors for a 7th year, Bootstrap Company’s beloved rooftop venue Dalston Roof Park (DRP) returns at the end of April 2017 for another unforgettable summer of quality music, food and drinks.
With dry January now just a mere distant memory it’s time for Londoners to whet their whistle, dig out their fanciest lederhosen and snap up tickets for London's biggest party this Good Friday 14th April.
Springfest is the UK's largest German bier festival bringing the best party atmosphere this side of Stuttgart to North London. Fancy dress is strongly encouraged - think Oktoberfest chic and Bavarian looks. The good folk at Ally Pally will even be giving away a special prize to the best dressed on the night.
Crowds will be welcomed into the huge bier keller where an army of Bavarian babes will be on hand to serve jugs or pints of amber nectar to tables, so that's less time spent queuing at the bar and more time dancing. Speaking of dancing, there’s a jam packed line up of live music and DJs including a headline spot from the one and only - Europe's top Bowie tribute - Absolute Bowie to enjoy. Not to mention DJs from London's infamous pop night Club de Fromage, a traditional Oompah band and much more to be announced.
With a huge selection of German and craft beer on offer, street food and much more, Londoners are advised to book early to avoid missing out on Easter’s hottest ticket. Tickets are selling faster than you can say "Prost!"
Prepare to take your taste buds on the ultimate culinary adventure with a one-way ticket to Thailand for the evening, as Singha Beer [pronounced ‘sing’] teams up with Sebby Holmes, founder and head chef of Farang, one of the most talked about pop-up restaurants of 2017, to host an authentically Thai pop up dining experience on The Battersea Barge for Thai New Year (Songkran).

Have a drink on Camden Town Brewery to say goodbye
(and good riddance) to 2016
Trump, Brexit, Bake Off, Brangelina - really, it was all downhill after Harambe. To raise a toast to the end of an annus horribilis, Camden Town Brewery is offering a beer on the house to its first 50 customers each day between 28th – 31st December 2016.
Simply head to one of the brewery’s popular pubs - Camden’s Daughter in Kentish Town or The Horseshoe in Hampstead - and whisper“2016: dark year, dark beer” to the barman to receive a complimentary bottle of Camden Town Brewery’s Beer 2016, which can be shared with friends at the pub or at home.
Each year, Camden Town Brewery brews a beer that takes an entire year to make. This year’s release – Beer 2016 – is a lager that was created by the team at the end of 2015 before being aged in barrels for 12 long months, soaking up the flavours of bourbon, cognac and tequila from the barrels.
Rich, dark and full bodied, Beer 2016 is perfect to cheers in the New Year with friends. Packed with notes of cocoa, sweet treacle and dark rum and a balanced hop bitterness and short finish, it tastes just like homemade brandy pudding.
Jasper Cuppaidge, Founder and CEO of Camden Town Brewery, said: “Every year we release an annual beer to sum up the year; something to remember all the great things that have happened over the past 12 months.
Although it’s been a pretty dark year, our dark beer (Beer 2016) might be the best part to come out of it! So forget the bad times, keep good memories intact and enjoy a drink on us. Happy New Year!”
This seasonal lager is presented in a screen printed sharing bottle, illustrated by London artist Jay Cover, priced at £9.99 and available from www.beerhawk.co.uk.
