Last year was so much fun, let’s do it again. After a successful inaugural BPBW festival in 2018, BPBW Beer Week in Budapest is back for 2019 and it is jam-packed with more beer, more bands and more excitement.
This time around, festival participants will have the opportunity to try beers from 60 breweries from around the world during the two day tasting sessions on May 24 and 25. And what a beer line-up they have. From Colorado’s Left Hand Brewing Company, to TotenHopfen from Luxembourg and 8 Wired Brewing coming all the way from New Zealand, this is truly an extraordinary opportunity for beer lovers to try some of the best craft beers around (including the 11 Hungarian breweries present). There will be something for everyone.
As this is a week-long festival, there will be events leading up to the main tasting sessions on the weekend. Warm yourself up by checking out some of these tap takeovers around Budapest during the week:
