In this edition: just a few of the upcoming beer-filled events in the coming weeks.

The team behind Beat Street are bringing a new event to Manchester later this month, which they describe as ‘not your ordinary beer festival’. Taking place at the former home of the Friday Food Fight in Great Northern Warehouse September 25-27, Let’s Get Beer’d will feature a variety of British craft breweries, street food and DJs. Each ticket includes four halves selected in a lucky dip format – so you’re probably best going in a group in case you want to swap around.

A more traditional upcoming event is Didsbury Beer Festival. Taking place October 29-31, the festival will be held at St Catherine’s Social Club on School Lane and the organisers promise more than 100 beers, ciders and perries alongside live music and food.

Meanwhile, in Stockport they’re not just dedicating a weekend to beer – they’re hosting an entire week (and a bit). From September 24-October 4, Stockport and South Manchester CAMRA have arranged a variety of events including a festival celebrating beers from Stockport at the lovely Hope Inn (home of Fool Hardy Ales), a meet the brewer with Thirst Class Brewery at the Olde Vic and a Cryptic Ales brewery open house. The majority of the events are free entry and the full programme is available on their Facebook page.

And finally, here’s something a bit different taking place in Salford at the end of the month – a meet the brewer inside a museum. Salford Museum and Art Gallery have invited their local brewery Shindigger to come down on September 30 to showcase four of their beers and explain the brewing process. Nibbles will also be on offer and the line-up includes their City Shuffle Red Ale, brewed in collaboration with former Salford University student and music producer Werkha. Tickets are £14 or £12 if you’re a student.
