Leeds Beer Festivals in July - North Bar and The Hop

Just a quick reminder that North Bar's American Beer festival in Leeds is already underway. This yearly festival starts on the 4th of July (American Independence Day, of course) and runs until the 15th. Expect a wide range of American Craft Beer on tap aswell as fridges full of cans and bottles from the good ol' US of A.

North have been frontrunners in bringing American Craft beer to West Yorkshire drinkers and their range at the American Beer festival is always a thing to behold. Fans of bold, hoppy, high abv craft beers need to hot-tail it down there asap.

Also in July, The Hop on Granary Wharf are holding a Summer Beer Festival over one weekend from Thursday 14th to Sunday 17th July. With a special festival bar being put in place upstairs this cask only festival looks set to be a good one, with a genuinely huge range of cask beers in an array of styles, and the promise of new beers from new breweries, this looks set to be worth a look.

If the sun is shining then all the better, as you can grab a pint and sit outside in their large terraced area, smack bang in the middle of the rather nice Granary Wharf canalside area. What a perfect way to spend a weekend afternoon.
