2. What’s this all about?
There is another world out there: one where thousands of
people congregate to consume litre after litre of beer.
Whether you’re wearing lederhosen in German or quaffing
ale from an orange-coloured beer mug in Holland, the beer
festival is an experience that would be unforgettable, if it not
all that beer.
3. 5. Great British Beer Festival, London
The Brits are known to love a beer in the traditional pub
settings famous to the country.
The Great British Beer Festival is held every year by the
Campaign for Real Ale and it is catered for real beer lovers.
It is designed to be the biggest pub in the world which serves
a variety of a staggering 800 different real ales and ciders.
4. 4. Altausseer Bierzelt, Austria
Considered a smaller and more intimate version of
Okotoberfest, the Alpine village of Altaussee comes to life
with the rise of its beer tent.
Visitors flock every year to the tiny hamlet for the fun 3-day
festival, Altausseer Bierzelt, in early September.
Expect to see OOM-pah-pah bands on every corner and why
not join in wearing the traditional Dirndl attire.
5. 3. PINT Bokbier Festival, Amsterdam
The largest beer festival in the Netherlands actually started in
a small café in Amserdan in 1978.
The event has never looked back and attracts up to 12,000
visitors every year.
The PINT Bokbier Festival has over 50 types of ‘bok’ beer on
tap and you get a glass upon entry which is yours for the
entire visit.
6. 2. Czech Beer Festival, Prague
Did you know that people in Prague drink more beer per
capita than anywhere else in the world?
The Czech Beer Festival lasts 17 days (!) and promises 70
brands of Czech beers, with each beer tent featuring its own
entertainment stage.
7. 1. Oktoberfest, Munich
Easily the most famous beer festival in Europe, if not the
entire world, Oktoberfest is the largest around.
