IMPERIAL – BE OUR SPECIAL GUEST LIKE THERE WAS NO TOMORROW
DOUBLE TASTING SESSIONS / FRIDAY – SATURDAY 9-10th SEPTEMBER 2022
Two 6 hours long tasting sessions (from 2pm to 8pm) with unlimited beer tasting included in the ticket price on the 9-10th September 2022.
The concept for both the Friday and Saturday tasting sessions is 2 (+2) taps for all breweries, and 1 keg of each beer per session. Once a keg is done, the beer is gone for that session. Breweries are allowed to do a beer change at halftime of the session (so at 5pm).
This means you can taste up to 4 beers from a brewery per session, and we will have a completely different beer list both on Friday and Saturday.
A UNIQUE VINTAGE TASTING GLASS
Once you check in at the festival, you will get a unique tasting glass with the annual BPBW logo on it. The tasting quantity is 1dl for each beer (0.5dl for the more exclusive / strong ones) to make sure that you can taste as many beers as possible. Needless to say, but feel free to ask for 0.5dl only from any type of beer to try most of them and survive the long sessions.
If you lose or break your tasting glass you can buy another one at our official merch desk for 1.500 HUF.
ENTER 30 MINUTES EARLIER
Skip the line and jump into the tastings 30 minutes before the official start!
AFTERPARTIES / BOTH DAYS – 22nd, AND 23rd MAY 2020
The core events will be followed by huge afterparties including the wildest bands and performers from Hungary’s diverse music scene.
Pure rock’n’roll, live shows, DJs and local craft beer from 8pm at the same location as the tasting sessions – Dürer Kert, one of the best live music venues in Budapest, located on the Buda side right next to the shore of the river Danube.
GRAND OPENING PARTY
You are invited to the Grand Opening Party on Thursday, 8th September, where you can have a drink, hang out and chat with all the brewers themselves and of course with us, the BPBW team. Can’t wait to meet you there!
ENCORE SESSION / SUNDAY 11th SEPTEMBER 2022
On Sunday the 11th September 2022 an Encore session will take place at Dürer Kert, the same location of the tasting sessions. Guests can purchase their Encore tickets and tokens at the doors, but in case you already have any type of tasting session ticket you are entitled to enter the Sunday Encore session for free.
With the Imperial ticket you’re also eligible for unlimited tastings just like during the previous Friday and Saturday sessions.
Please mind that here we can neither guarantee personal representation from all breweries, nor that all beers from the Friday-Saturday tasting sessions will be available.
GO FULL CRAFT ALL WEEK LONG
We kindly invite you to spend the whole week and enjoy the flow with us and our guests in person, particularly during our main events from the 9th Friday to the 11th Sunday. Needless to say though, it would be great to have you here for the whole week (from 5th to 11th), as Budapest has a lot to discover beyond its beer scene. We will do our best to make you feel like you are home away from home.
During the week between 5th and 11th September we will have exclusive tap-takeovers and meet the brewer events with impressive tap lists at the best craft beer bars in Budapest. In addition we’re going to guide you what to do and where to go in Budapest during weekdays too.
