Hopefully you’re all enjoying the sunshine of late. Don’t forget that if you fancy a cold beer in the sunshine then the Tap Yard is right round the corner, serving brewery fresh and award winning craft beer (and of course
a selection of wine / spirits / soft drinks). We also have street food vendors joining us every Saturday, and plenty of seating both inside, outside in the sunshine or in the cool and shady Sipping Containers.
However, if, like us, you like to get your summer planned well in advance, then we’d like to introduce our big summer Beer Festival, taking place on Saturday 30th July at the 3Sixty Event Space on the Reading University Campus – Time Hops.
Time Hops, in the first instance, is a showcase of hops. We’re brewing four beers inspired by some of the beer that shaped the industry. The beers that made us all think more about hops, and the flavour profiles they bring to a brew. We’re celebrating this project with a huge beer festival, and you’re invited!
What can you expect from Time Hops?
We’ve moved this party away from the brewery for good reason – to go bigger and better than we ever have before. We’ll have over 30 lines of beer pouring throughout the day, street food vendors and live music, with more activities planned for the day. So far we have a number of guest breweries lined up. The incredible Brew York and Fierce Beer, and local heroes Elusive Brewing, Double Barrelled, Phantom, Dolphin and Wild Weather.
Food wise, we’ve reached out to the vendors that we’d go to eat from. Making their first appearance at a Siren event is the incredible Burger Bear. Burger Bear’s burgers are well known in the food scene as being the pinnacle of what’s possible. You haven’t had a properly good burger until you’ve tried their food. We’ve also got Fink Street Food, who not only make incredibly tasty food, but use their platform to help local mental health charities. And lastly, Clays Hyderabadi. The pride of the local food scene, garnering incredible reviews from the likes of Jay Rayne and Tom Parker-Bowles.
Music wise, we have the amazing MELLOR playing live, with more to be announced, as well as Rum n Donuts DJs. However, if music’s not your thing, it’s a huge venue with plenty of space, including a huge outdoor space.
All this is available for just £12 a ticket, which includes entrance, a glass, a festival brochure and £5 worth of drinks tokens. Head to the link listed below for a full breakdown, more announcements and tickets – or, scan the QR code!
