Barcelona Beer Festival

Barcelona Beer Festival (BBF) is the meeting point for craft beer lovers. It has been born with the aim to show the wholesome qualities of craft beer to the general public, whilst at the same time serving as a professional forum.

The centrepiece of the festival will be an enormous bar with more of 60 beer taps where a huge variety of artisan beers (more than 300) can be sampled, both brewed in Catalonia and from abroad.

Description

Over the last few years the craft beer industry has been going through a massive period of growth. Currently there are over 400 microbreweries in Spain, all operating with great vitality.

The Barcelona Beer Festival is the greatest showcase for this new gastronomic beer culture. The festival features some of the best national and international beers and is the best chance to discover this quality produce. There are more than 300 different beers to discover, understand and appreciate.

Aside from tastings, the festival features other events. There is a program of parallel activities, which goes into depth about the knowledge and communication of beer culture. These events will be attended by first-rate international brewers who will explain their projects as well as how craft beer has evolved in countries with the oldest tradition. And, at the same time, there will also be local exhibits that combine beer culture with other social activities, such as cuisine, university, music, etc.

We consider craft beer as a gastronomic produce that can be excellently paired with good food. The objective is to show the gastronomic potential beer holds, and this is met by organising specific events, especially tastings of local producers and restaurateurs.

Ultimately, the BBF is the best setting to discover craft beer, as it is the meeting point for the sector across the whole country. Come along and discover it for yourself!
