Lisbon Beer Week #1

We LOVE beer.

We have both worked in the international beer business world for several years. And Thomas has been a passionate and active beer enthusiast since his first international beer festival back in 1980… so this is something we’re looking forward to follow.

 

Do you like beer?

When it comes to crafted beer, micro breweries, brew pubs, imports etc. Portugal is still way behind the rest of the world… after all – this is a wine country :-} BUT things are changing slowly but surely with more beers coming up every month and more and more cafes and restaurants serving them. And yesterday the first ever beer festival – Lisbon Beer Week #1 – was kicked off with participation of 12 brewers, 32 restaurants and 6 brew pubs presenting 42 different beers – more information in the local Beer Magazine
