BBF is one of the largest festivals in Europe, so they expect to welcome many visitors, as in previous years. If you are unsure what beer to try, ask the gentlemen in the yellow vests, the Beer Informers, because they can help you with any questions you might have.
They are experts in the flavours of every beer at the event, and they can help you with any beer decision problem. But, of course, there will not be just beer! You can also enjoy some of the culinary delights to fill your stomach and accompany your beers.
And if this wasn’t enough, there are different activities and musical and theatrical performances during the festival.
