WELCOME TO THE ZURICH BEER FESTIVAL

There are many events invloving beer so whats special about the Zurich Beer Festival?

Switzerland has now more breweries than any other country per capita but still the most famous beer style is Lager. That's what you get at every restaurant or pub so even though we have many small craft breweries they are still struggling to get their name out and find their clients.

Our goal is to promote all different styles of beer and leave it to the vistor to judge what style you prefer. There is no specific beer taste and we don't want to patronise our visitors.

At the Zurich Beer Festival every visitor gets a special beer tasting glass that one can keep as included in the sales price. At every beer stand you only get 10cl of beer. This allows to taste many different beers without the goal of getting drunk. In other words. Its about taste and quality and not about quantity. There is always national and international breweries present at the festival. 

There are usually workshops during the entire festival exploring the fascinating field of the beer production. From malt to hops to skills. We usually have workshops for absolute beer-ginners and also for the experienced homebrewer.

We are ProBier and we demand and foster beer diversity.
