– Wild Beer Co. Tap Takeover 08/12/16
WILD BEER CO. TAP TAKEOVER
Thursday 8th December 2016 / 4pm-end times / free
Probably our biggest tap takeover of the year falls at the feet of Bristol’s favourite sons, Wild Beer Co. Line-up and more info to follow but this is going to be big so save the date. Talking exclusive tastings with Wild Beer and a full Wild Beer spread across cask and keg. We are commemorating the event with a special poster by HimHallows. Look out for that and maybe even pick up a limited edition print.
– Buxton takeover PSBH 6th-9th October 2016
BUXTON BREWERY TAKEOVER PORT STREET
6th-9th October 2016 / IMBC 16 Fringe
We never believed in the term/lifestyle “Birthday Week” until now…and it’s not even our birthday, though it feels like it is.
Buxton Brewery are coming to Port Street for FOUR DAYS. That’s almost a week. I’m sure they’ll be four of the best days of our year that’s for sure. Think a tap takeover and quadruple it. Buxton are promising to bring a very special haul – rumours of cask rarities and soft serve pours abound. Details coming soon.
The Buxton Port Street takeover is a fringe event for our beer festival, Indy Man Beer Con, occurring the exact same days as merriments in Victoria Baths (6th-9th October 2016). As if you didn’t have enough good beer on your plate, we thought we’d give you more. The Buxton takeover is open to all.
Our sister pubs are also holding IMBC fringe takeovers with Common housing a BEAVERTOWN spectacular and The Beagle in Chorlton fielding a HAWKSHEAD onslaught. Gotta drink ’em all!

De Molen are one of the most highly respected breweries operating in the craft world today.
Here’s the beer list. All pouring on keg…
Heaven & Hell – 12% Imperial Stout

– North Brewing Co Tap Takeover
Thursday 28th July 2016 / 5pm – late
We are honoured to welcome Leeds’ North Brewing Co across the pennines for a special tap takeover at Port Street.
Set up by the pioneering Leeds-based bar group North Bar Ltd and the successful team behind Belgrave Music Hall and Headrow House, North Brewing Co (and taproom) opened in November 2015 at Taverner’s Walk Industrial Estate on the fringe of Leeds City Centre and initially serviced the eight bars currently operated by the two bar groups. Brewers Seb Brink (formerly of Golden Owl) and Darius Darwell (of Bristol Beer Factory) are behind the recipes of the beers, which vary from classic British styles to exciting and interesting flavour combinations.
The team have collaborated with a number of breweries in recent months, including Drygate Brewery in Glasgow and most recently brewing a Yorkshire rhubarb sour beer with Lervig Brewery from Norway. North have got a collaboration lined up with BrewDog and the Port Street team recently took a trip to Leeds to make a beer with North that you’ll be able to taste for the first time at this tap takeover.
Here’s the beer list…
