Guests will spot a wide and thirst-quenching range of taps on offer at Nicholson’s Pubs across the UK with small and famed brewers set to feature prominently throughout the showcase, including the likes of WooHa, Siren, Ilkley, Fyne and London Brewing Co., Beer fans will be happy to hear a number of special ‘Meet the Brewer’ events and tasting evenings will be popping up at specific pubs, giving aficionados the opportunity to discover new flavours and uncover the secrets behind a perfect brew.
Ben Lockwood, beer and cider procurement manager at Nicholson’s pubs, said: “For the second time this year we’re partnering with some of the finest breweries in the UK to launch a series of Tap Takeovers. Our pubs and guests love being able to discover a full range of beers from one brewery, and it allows us to plan a host of fun and engaging events across the UK to celebrate. Look out for favourites, exclusives, and specials across the next six weeks.”
