Countdown to the next craft beer festival

This time we have news about an upcoming beer extravaganza - figuratively and literally.
The time has come to offer you a story that is yet to happen!

The third edition of the boutique craft beer festival - 3d Plenary Council of Independent Breweries - Craft Beer Festival is about to take place on 25 September 2021.

This format aims to always introduce new names to our country, but established top breweries from the European craft scene on local soil. The goal is for the Bulgarian beer lover not only to be able to try new and different beers from the country and Europe, but also to personally meet their creators. Believe us, they are no less enthusiastic to meet you: a new audience, tastes, customs, habits and culture.

In last year’s previous edition - Totenhopfen, Luxemburg stood out as undisputed favourites and headliners; it was a big success also for Peninsula, Spain; Bere Noah, Romania; and as always our well-received friends from The Garden Brewery, Crotia…  These breweries, logically, will attend the event again, but this time with brand new beers and styles.

Last year's lock-down prevented most brewers from serving their beers in person, but this year 100% of them confirmed their personal participation.

Only on 25.09.21 on the shared territory of Koncept Space & White Stork Republic in the capital city, we will finally meet the master brewers from Oproer, The Netherlands; FrauGruber, Germany and the Hungarians: Horizont, Feher Nyul, and Dealbreaker!
The most exciting part again will be the new names in the list - they are unsurpassed favourites in Western beer circles, top breweries in rating and quality of their beers. Debut for Bulgaria will be from Prizm, France; Wicked Barrel, Romania; Lupum, Portugal; De Moersleutel, The Netherlands...aand craft cider Ruwet Cidre, Belgium.

It is time for the native craft beer fans to learn more about what is happening on the beer map, outside the Balkans.

We from Pivoteka, as the official distributor of the event, are really excited about the upcoming meeting. For us, the pleasant task remains to make sure that the new additions* to our catalog of beer temptations reach all of you, to all parts of the country after their premiere at the festival.

* exclusive draught beers will be available within the 3d Plenary Council of Independent Breweries - Craft Beer Festival only for the purposes of the festival. In very rare cases, the same beers will be available to order through our website.

As usual, the Bulgarian participation will not be neglected - apart from the host White Stork, the brewers from Meltum, Lovech; Kazan Artisan, Sofia will serve you their freshest and newest beers.

We are keeping our fingers crossed for the organizers and their guests, and until then you can follow the news about the festival here
