A brand new beer festival organised by Portsmouth’s only brewery, Irving and Company will be upon us this October.  Beers, Ciders and Perries from all round the UK will be on offer as well as many local favourites.  You’ll be able to enjoy live music, food and a great atmosphere all being hosted at the Groundlings Theatre in Portsea.

Friday 14th October 12-4pm is a preview session at £2 and 6-11pm is £8.  Saturday 15th October sees the day session 12 – 4pm at £4 and 6-11pm session is £8.  I wonder if this fest will be drunk dry just like the previous Portsmouth beer festivals?

Ticket sales are available at Irving brewery 02392 738507 or Groundlings Theatre, Curzon Howe Road, Portsmouth, PO1 3BS 02392 737370 and The Belle Isle, Fountain, Leopold Tavern, Rose In June and The Stags Head at Westbourne.

The beers will be coming from local brewers such as Irvings, Oakleaf and Bowman as well as further afield like Dark Star, Vale, All Gates, Great Oakley and Ramsgate to name but a few and the range of the Ciders will be from Whiteheads of Selbourne.

So don’t hesitate good people of Portsmouth, get your tickets and let’s have a knees up!
