Where To Say ‘Cheers’ This International Beer Day
Happy International Beer Day! The great thing about International Beer Day is that you almost certainly had no idea it was coming, so you’ve just done the beer equivalent of waking up on Christmas Day. So consider this your Beermas stocking, and here are your gifts: fun beer filled things to do…
Roast
The ROASTest with the Mostest
Roast not only totally nails the Sunday roast, the London Bridge restaurant now does so with beer! For a limited time only, they’ll be pairing beers with a special six course menu devised by Head Chef Stuart Cauldwell. Each dish is developed to complement a specific local beer to match the flavours and textures on the plate.
Where: The Floral Hall, Stoney St, London SE1 1TL

Camden Town Brewery Strawberry Hells
Heavenly Hells
Have you tried strawberry beer? Of course you haven’t, nobody has, until now. Camden Town Brewery have a new tipple and it’s perfect for the summer. Launched in time for International Beer Day, ‘Strawberry Hells Forever’ is a beer that combines freshly picked strawberries with Camden’s famous Hells lager. The summer beer comes in a specially designed 330ml can, illustrated by Alice Bowser and, seemingly at odds with the name, the drink is ‘Here for a good time, not a long time’, so get it while you can.
Where: Available from Sainsburys
