This show is aimed at those who are interested in learning about the different brews, the processes involved and the true way to enjoy them. Presented as an exhibition, guests can expect a high quality experience which will appeal to beer enthusiasts and novices alike.

“Beer has become a global trend. Never before has there been such tremendous interest in the heritage of beer, the brewing process and the stories behind individual beer brands,” said organiser Steve Binos from Essential Events.

“We’re not limiting the TOPS Beer Essentials event to beer. The market’s demand for cider is soaring, and it’s only a matter of time before cider also experiences the surge in interest that we are currently witnessing with beer,” confirmed Binos.

The Beer Essentials seeks to provide consumers with an unforgettable, informative and enjoyable Beer and Cider experience.

Attendees will be able to engage International Brand Representatives and Micro-Brewers alike, learn about the intricacies of beer from some of the foremost experts in the World, experience the culinary delights of master Chefs in beer and food pairings, look forward to Beer Theatres - talks and pairings by industry experts on topics such as “The Art of Beer Tasting”, “How to Brew Your Own Beer” and “Beer and Cheese: Folly or Future?” and the Sensory Experiences which will be set up around the venue.
