The craft beer world descends on the Convention Centre in Dublin city centre on Friday, February 27th-Sunday, March 1st, when 300 craft brews from all over the world will be available for sampling at the third Alltech Craft Brews & Food Fair.
With more than 60 breweries showing, and sharing their wares, some soakage might be required, hence the food side of things. But it won’t just be about grabbing a burger in between pints; there’ll be a stellar line-up of Irish artisan food producers in attendance too. For the adventurous, a Pair & Taste Food Trail will steer visitors in the direction of some interesting beer and food matches on offer at the event.
There's a competitive element to the gathering too, with the Dublin Craft Beer Cup being judged on the opening day, and competitions in eight categories of beer and cider.
Rugby fans will be able to watch the big matches taking place over the weekend on a big screen, and there will be music from The Jerry Fish Electric Side Show, the Booka Brass Band, Amazing Apples and Interskalactic.
Tickets, €15, are on sale at entertainment.ie and each will include four free drink or food tokens.
