1st Osnabrück Beer Fest

1st Osnabrück Beer Festival 2014

Something of interest to Derby's globe trotting real ale lovers out there! Osnabrück is hosting its first Beer Festival this year from the 13th to 15th June 2014. The festival will be held in the Market Place (Marktplatz), just like our own Summer Beer Festival, in the centre of Derby's German twin city of Osnabrück.

Visitors will get the chance to try mor then 100 different regional, national and international beers covering over 20 countries. The festival is going to give an inight into the variety of brews showing differences between traditional German brewing techniques and exotic brands from countries like Finland, Denmark and the United States. Some microbreweries from Germany will be attending who are creating new taste adventures beyond the usual lager and wheat beer styles some people associate with Germany. There are 10 live bands performing during the 3-day festival, since there is nothing Germans love more than a great open air concernt in Summer with superb beer.

Opening times are: Friday 16:00 - 23:00, Saturday12:00 - 23:00 and Sunday 11:00 - 20:00.
