Journey of Shropshire Beer - Slow Food Taste Workshop
Where: Beacon Rooms - Castle Gardens
We are delighted to welcome Laura Hadland, one of the country’s leading drinks writers, author of ‘50 Years of CAMRA’, the ‘Best Beer Book in the World 2022’.
Through the lens of beer she expertly navigates the complex world of brewing via stories of people, place and history. Highlighting the importance of keeping Cask Ale production and consumption alive in the UK, Shropshire certainly punches high above its weight.
Laura has hand-picked four different breweries and four contrasting beers to help illustrate her story, with accompanying nibbles.
Cost: £20 / Slow Food members £18
