With some of the most exciting UK breweries in attendance, this year’s festival aims to have the best line-up yet. Pilot Beer and Barneys’ Beer will be on tap, along with an even bigger international presence than ever before. American craft brewer Sierra Madre and Austrians Stiegl will also travel all the way to Scotland’s capital for the weekend.
The festival is organised by Barney’s Beer, established in 2012 by Andrew ‘Barney’ Barnett, and based at Summerhall, one of Edinburgh’s central independent arts spaces.
They are currently the longest established brewery in the city, taking their inspiration from the landscape around them, and picking up where the original Summerhall Brewery — established in the 1700s — left off.
A festival organised by a brewery with brewers in mind, Barney’s Beer has created Gravity Beer Festival to showcase breweries from across the UK and beyond. Tickets cost £38 and include all beer pours, as well as a festival glass.There will also be free tutored talks and tastings. Find out more here
