The festival runs from the 6 to the 7 of March with 14 breweries taking part in the whole event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Feast is a 2 day craft-beer festival which previews the Sheffield Beer Week being held from the 9 to 15 of March.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Festival Organiser and \u2018Hop Hideout\u2019 owner, Jules Gray, said: \u201cThe idea is it brings people to the city for a few days. They then go and enjoy events for the rest of the Sheffield beer week. It creates a bit of a bigger buzz and interest.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He said: &#8220;there&#8217;s 11 collaboration brew beers coming out from local breweries and they&#8217;re all inspired by Sheffield electronic bands like Cabre, Voltaire and the Human League.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the beers being sold at the feast that has been inspired by Sheffield\u2019s synth music history is \u201cNag Nag Nag\u201d by Bradfield Brewery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"828\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image0.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-68577\" srcset=\"https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image0.jpeg 828w, https:\/\/shefnews.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/image0-480x396.jpeg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 828px, 100vw\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Jules also spoke about the ethos behind the event, she said: \u201cit&#8217;s not about over consumption or that kind of angle. We&#8217;re talking about community heritage. We&#8217;re talking about beer and food pairing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The festival will offer a range of food and drink for attendees with some pubs, like the Harlequin Pub offering their own select menu for the feast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Established in 2018, the event originally took place in the Abbeydale Ballroom before moving to the the Trafalgar Warehouse in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jules said that she wanted to, \u201cshowcase Sheffield breweries, but also the brilliant, independent beer scene has a really welcoming space. For people to celebrate beer and to enjoy it&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSo, for me, it&#8217;s the community which is important for students as well. You may come to a city and not know anyone. How do you get to know people? It may be through third spaces like a pub and very much there are pubs within the heart of a lot of student places like the Hallamshire house is in a very student area.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tickets for the feast can be found on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiebeerfeast.co.uk\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.indiebeerfeast.co.uk\/\">Indie Beer Feast website.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sheffield&#8217;s Indie Beer Feast kicks off Sheffield Beer Week with a focus on The Steely City&#8217;s electric music history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":811,"featured_media":68575,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[415,43],"tags":[1133,174,38],"class_list":["post-68570","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","category-culture","tag-beer","tag-food","tag-sheffield"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
