Welcome to Ipswich Craft Beer Week

Get ready to raise a glass – the very first Ipswich Craft Beer Week is here! Taking place across the town, this exciting new celebration brings together the best of local pubs, bars, and breweries for a week-long showcase of flavour, creativity, and community spirit. From Monday through Thursday, participating venues will host special events including tap takeovers, meet-the-brewer evenings, tasting sessions, and beer-inspired food pairings. Whether you’re a seasoned craft beer enthusiast or simply curious to try something new, there will be something to enjoy at every stop.

The week builds to a grand finale with the Ipswich Craft Beer Festival, held on Friday 21st and Saturday 22nd November. This two-day celebration will feature an impressive line-up of independent breweries from across Suffolk and beyond, pouring their finest creations under one roof. Expect a wide variety of styles – from hop-forward IPAs to rich stouts and crisp lagers – alongside cider, street food, and live entertainment.

Ipswich Craft Beer Week is more than just about great drinks; it’s about bringing people together to enjoy the town’s vibrant hospitality scene. Mark your calendars, gather your friends, and join us for an unforgettable week of beer discovery in Ipswich.
