Duration: 3 hours
This is part of a trilogy of the 'Battle of the Beers' events, taking place at seven different venues across Portsmouth.
Our 15th beer tasting takes you to a brilliant pub, in fact, this will be the second time we've been to the Sir Loin of Beef, pouring a diverse selection of craft beer styles! We have exclusive access to their back room, where the event will be taking place.
Guests will be scoring each beer based on the can/bottle design, appearance, smell, mouthfeel and aftertaste. Included are six generous servings of different craft beers, along with a tutored tasting from our beer expert.
Hungry? The Sir Loin of Beef allows takeaways and deliveries, all we ask is not to purchase anything too smelly or overpowering which might affect the taste of the beer for you or others in the room.
