The Mash celebrates the collective creativity and originality each city shares with Brooklyn through food, culture and the world’s favourite beverage. With Brooklyn’s Chef & Head of Culinary Programming, Andrew Gerson, at the helm, Brooklyn Brewery continues to innovate within the culinary and beer event space through The Mash Tour with unexpected and collaborative experiences in each city. There is nothing typical about this festival.

Running from Wednesday 11th to Sunday 15th May 2016, The Mash Tour sees the launch of Brooklyn Scorcher IPA in the UK, a delicious summer pale ale, available for the first time this side of the pond.

On Wednesday, 11 May, the tour kicks off with Feast at Soho favourite, Smoking Goat, when Brooklyn Brewery takes a few very lucky food and beer lovers to dinner. Brooklyn Brewery Chef Andrew Gerson will team up with the Smoking Goat crew on an adventurous menu. Winning guests will enjoy a bevy of signature and off-menu dishes plus plenty of Brooklyn’s rarest, most intriguing beers to mix and match alongside. To enter for a chance to win a seat at Feast, head over to http://brooklynbrewerymash.com/london/feast-at-smoking-goat.

On Thursday, come and enjoy a Free Show and a bar stocked full of Brooklyn Brewery beer at awe-inspiring music venue, the Church of St John-at-Hackney. We’ll be getting loud with critically acclaimed headliners, METZ, as the explosive group brings their jagged guitars and thundering drums to shake the dust out of the rafters. The bars will be stocked with Brooklyn Brewery beer for all, so get in, grab a cold one, and get ready to lose your mind for a little while. Head over to @BklynBreweryUK on Twitter for announcements on other artists.

Friday and Saturday will bring Brooklyn’s Beer Mansion to Dalston – an interactive and immersive beer festival, combining humanity’s favourite beverage with local food, art, and music, all in one place, with The Graveltones and Messenger performing live. Presented at M.C. Motors, each room promises a unique environment, a distinctive experience and, most importantly, a different style of beer, as local breweries join the fray.
