Located in King\u2019s Cross, it is set to bring together over a hundred of the best breweries from across London and the South East, in an exciting three day charity beer festival. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love Beer London is a collaborative project between the London\nBrewers Alliance (LBA), the Society of Independent Brewers (SIBA) South East\nand Craft Beer Cares. All proceeds will go to The Benevolent, a trade charity\nthat provides help and support to current and former employees of the drinks\nindustry and their families. Craft Beer Cares, which, like SIBA and the LBA, is\na not-for-profit organisation, will run and staff the event with volunteers,\nwhich means that the event will have a positive impact on the industry as well\nas serving the very best beer that London\nhas to offer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I spoke to festival organiser Jaega Wise, who is the head brewer\nat the Wild Card Brewery in Walthamstow and also an elected director of SIBA\nSouth East, about the event. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/image-17.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-635\" width=\"124\" height=\"135\"\/><figcaption><em> Jaega <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Jaega says, \u201c<em>Over the last ten years the brewing scene in London has gone from strength to strength and in my opinion London is now one of the most exciting beer cities in Europe, with more breweries springing up in communities across the Capital every few months. With Love Beer London we are bringing together all of the best breweries from across London and the South East into one huge new beer festival, serving a broad range of beer styles of the highest quality in an amazing event space just behind King\u2019s Cross station. It\u2019s the first time that SIBA have joined with the LBA and we\u2019re hugely excited about the broad range of craft breweries and beer styles that will feature at the festival. As well as modern hop-forward IPAs and pale ales there will be lots of traditional bitters, porters and stronger English ales, as well as fruited sours, Czech-style lagers and speciality and mixed-fermentation beers. It genuinely will have something for everybody. Love Beer London got its name because everyone involved is doing this for the love of good beer and making it feel inclusive and open to all is a huge part of what we are trying to do; it\u2019s why we have priced the tickets and beer tokens as affordably as possible. As brewers we want to brew amazing beer and share it with as many people as possible, and that\u2019s what Love Beer London is all about.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The festival is open Thursday 13 to Saturday 15 February as follows:\nThursday: 5 to 11pm; Friday and Saturday: 11.30 to 4.30pm and 6 to 11pm.\nTickets are priced at \u00a312 per session and include a branded glass. The beer is\nset to be priced at a very reasonable \u00a32 per half pint, although some high ABV\nbeers will be \u00a33 per half pint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information or to buy your ticket, visit <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovebeerlondon.co.uk\/\">www.lovebeerlondon.co.uk. <\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong><em>Neil Walker, Head of Communications &amp; Marketing, SIBA<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Love Beer London is a new craft keg beer festival aiming to be a force for good in the capital, serving live, unfiltered, and unpasteurised beers from keg in a&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":637,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-634","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-beer-festival"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=634"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":636,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634\/revisions\/636"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/637"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=634"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=634"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/londondrinker.camra.org.uk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=634"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
