MORE PINT-SIZED FUN AS PROPYARD ANNOUNCES ITS BREWERY LINE-UP AND RELEASES EXTRA TICKETS FOR HOPTOBERFEST

Craft beer fans rejoice as some of Bristol’s finest breweries are soon to be serving up steins at Hoptoberfest this October.

After the success of Hopyard last Easter, Propyard will once again be bringing the very best of Bristol’s beer brewing talent and beyond to the heart of St. Phillips with its brand new Hoptoberfest event from Friday 21st to Saturday 22nd October. Following tickets for the Friday and Saturday evening sessions selling out, Propyard has introduced a Saturday day ticket so no beer-lovers need miss out on the Bavarian-inspired fun. A limited amount of extra tickets have also just been released for the two evening sessions. Honouring Bristol’s modern independent beer movement, Hoptoberfest has invited the city’s brewing icons along with some top-quality brewers from across the UK to supply the people of Bristol with their finest pours. The impressive selection will feature a huge array of craft beers from Arbor Ales, Fierce & Noble, Lost and Grounded, Wiper and True, Left Handed Giant, Moor, Basement Beer, Bristol Cider Company, Wild Beer Co, Brick Brewery, Newtown Park, Jubel and Welsh brewing legends, Tiny Rebel. Hoptoberfest will see the launch of Propyard’s 'Courtyard-Undercover’, a beautiful fully heated tent covering the entirety of the Courtyard, ensuring the space can be used all Winter long. Hoptoberfest will take place in both the Crane Room and Courtyard-Undercover - and the two day event will offer drinks, eats and beats as it brings together the very best pours and pairs them with specially curated music to amplify the celebrations. On Friday, the former Fun Lovin’ Criminals frontman and BBC 6Music host, Huey Morgan, will be bringing the tunes with his DJ set. He’ll be joined by Angel Mel, an artist born and bred in the heart and soul of the Bristol music scene, along with seven piece brass band, King Brasstards, to kick off the Hoptoberfest celebrations.

UK hip-hop legends, Rodney P & Skitz will headline Saturday’s line-up. Thy’ll be joined by the musical talents of Madame Electrifie, who will be fusing vintage beats with the best of the modern age to create a raucous dance floor focused party, along with more Oom-Pah bass and classic covers from King Brasstards.

The weekend will start the right way, with Friday’s evening session taking place between 6PM - 11PM with Angel Mel, King Brasstards and Huey Morgan. The newly-added Saturday day session will be open from 12PM - 5PM before leading into the eve session at 6PM until 11PM. Rodney P & Skitz, Madame Electrifie and King Brasstards will be bringing the tunes across both Saturday sessions.
