April 23rd, 2025, marks a special day for beer enthusiasts across the UK: German Beer Day! This celebration, which originated in Germany to honour the country’s finest beers, has now become a beloved holiday for beer lovers worldwide. The day commemorates the passage of the Reinheitsgebot, or “purity law,” on April 23rd, 1516, which set strict standards for beer ingredients, allowing only barley, hops, and water.
For pub, bar, and restaurant owners, German Beer Day presents a fantastic opportunity to showcase a variety of German beers and create a memorable experience for your customers. Consider featuring a selection of classic German brands. You could also offer special tastings that allow customers to sample different styles and discover their new favourites.
Hosting themed events can add an extra layer of excitement to the celebration. Organise a German beer tasting event, complete with traditional German snacks like pretzels and bratwurst. You could also host a trivia night with questions about German beer history and brewing techniques, or even a beer pairing dinner where each course is matched with a different German beer.
Engaging with your customers on social media can also boost the German Beer Day experience. Encourage your customers to share their experiences by creating a special hashtag for your establishment. Running a contest where customers post photos of themselves enjoying the German beers, with the best photo winning a prize, can help build a sense of community and loyalty.
German Beer Day 2025 is the perfect opportunity to showcase your establishment’s commitment to offering a diverse and exciting beer selection. By planning ahead and creating a memorable experience, you can ensure that your customers have a fantastic time and keep coming back for more.

British Cider Week 2025, running from April 25th to May 5th, is the perfect time for pubs and bars to shine a spotlight on the nation’s beloved cider heritage. This annual celebration not only highlights the craft of cider-making but also offers a fantastic opportunity for landlords to engage customers, boost sales, and support local producers.
The UK is home to some of the finest cider brands, each with its unique character and story. From the crisp and refreshing offerings of Thatchers and Westons to the artisanal creations of Lilley’s Cider and Broadoak Cider, there’s a cider for every palate. Why not feature a selection of these brands on your menu during Cider Week? Consider
showcasing regional favorites like Cornwall’s Healeys Flattler or Worcestershire’s Celtic Marches Cider to give your patrons a true taste of British craftsmanship.
Host a Cider Tasting Night: Partner with local cider makers to organise a tasting event. Invite customers to sample a range of ciders, learn about the production process, and discover their new favorite drink.
Create a Cider-Themed Menu: Pair ciders with complementary dishes to enhance the dining experience. For example, a dry cider like Lilley’s Somerset Scrumpy Dry pairs beautifully with pork dishes, while a sweeter cider like Broadoak
Purple Haze complements desserts perfectly.
Run a Cider Festival:
Dedicate a weekend to celebrating cider with live music, games, and exclusive deals on cider pints. Collaborate with local producers to offer limitededition brews.
Decorate with a Cider Twist: Transform your pub or bar into a cider haven with themed decorations. Use apple crates, barrels and bunting to create a warm and inviting atmosphere.
So, why not make British Cider Week 2025 a highlight of your pub or bar’s calendar? With a little creativity and collaboration, you can turn this celebration into a memorable experience for your customers.
