Dear protters!

On Tuesday, November 12, dispuut Uisge Beatha will be hosting its well-known craft beer tasting evening! The event will start at 19:00 at ‘In Vivo’. This year, there will be a choice of a standard package, a 0.0% package, and a connoisseur package, where you and a partner will get to taste 5 beers. So, when registering, make sure to mention who your drinking buddy is! Each person will get to taste 5 half beers, allowing you to try as much as possible and/or get used to the wide variety of flavours. Also, don’t forget to specify which package you would like (you and your partner must choose the same package):

• Standard package (€7.50 per person): contains beers that are a bit more accessible in terms of flavour, such as a nice blonde, a fruity beer, or a tripel. Perfect for those looking for something familiar but still flavourful.
• 0.0% package (€7.50 per person): for those who want to forgo the alcohol, but still enjoy some good beer. From light and fruity to rich and full-bodied, this pack offers a diverse taste experience.
• Connoisseur package (€9.50 per person): this contains beers likely to appeal more to the advanced craft beer drinker. Think of an Infused, Quadruple or an Imperial Stout. A package for those who are looking to try something unique and bold.
• Gluten-free package (€9.50 per person): for those with gluten sensitivities, we’ve curated a selection of gluten-free craft beers that don’t compromise on taste. This package includes amongst others Pale Ale, brown ale and a stout.

Snacks will be served throughout the evening to ensure there’s something solid to eat too. If you would like more information about the event or the packages, feel free to ask one of our members. You can register for the standard or 0.0% package, and for the connoisseur or gluten-free package. Registration is open until 8 November.

Please note: you will be tasting in pairs, but everyone must register individually. So don’t forget to mention your drinking buddy and the same package!

We look forward to seeing you on the 12th!
