Do I need to register to participate?
No, just show up to a participating brewery on the weekend of the event and enjoy your experience! If you plan on joining any free brewery tours, it’s best to show up early. Most breweries will set out a sign-up list at the bar half an hour before the tour starts, so get your name on that list as early as possible.
Where do I get a passport?
Passports will be available at all participating breweries a couple of weeks prior to the event. You can also pick up a passport at the first brewery that you visit on the weekend of the event.
What if I forget to hand in my passport?
If you forget to hand in your passport at the last brewery you visit, take a photo of the backside (i.e. the side with the stamps) and email the photo to craftbeerdays@gmail.com. Prize draws are usually conducted a day or two after the event so sending a photo of your passport may keep you eligible to win prizes!
Do I need to use the passport?
Some breweries may require you to have a passport to participate in the free tours or to sample the featured beer. Plus, when you turn in your passport at the end of the event you’ll receive a free souvenir and become eligible to win great prizes.
Will there be a bus or shuttle?
Most events do not include any bus or shuttle options, however, each event is organized separately and some organizers may offer such services. Announcements of special transportation services will be made on the corresponding event page on this website and on social media (@craftbeerdays).
Who is the intended audience?
Craft Beer Days is designed to offer something for everyone – from craft beer newbies to the most dedicated craft beer connoisseurs. The free tours encourage those unfamiliar with craft beer to experience the brewing process and to get to know local brewers. The featured beers offer an exclusive opportunity for craft connoisseurs to try new and innovative beers that have never previously been available.
Why should I attend?
Craft Beers Days gives you an opportunity to have an immersive brewery experience that would not be possible on most days. The free tours will allow you to get behind the scenes and experience first-hand how some of your favourite beers are brewed. You’ll also have the opportunity to interact with brewery staff and other craft beer enthusiasts from near and far. As an added bonus, your attendance during Craft Beer Days will earn you a special souvenir and a chance to win one of several prizes.
