Isle of Man Grand Beer Festival

The Villa Marina is the fantastic venue for the Festival, and live background entertainment will be provided in the Colonnade suite, which exits on to the Villa balcony, overlooking Douglas Bay, the Promenade and the gardens. This Festival is the Rotary Club of Douglas’ main fund raising event of the year, and we hope to attract an ever-increasing number of real ale connoisseurs to sample a range of beer from many of the microbreweries of the Island, the UK and beyond. Most beers cost £1.50 per half pint (with very strong beers £1.50 per 1/3 pint). On the Saturday morning we will be holding an informal talk & tasting session “How to pair Beer with Food”, which will include a selection of 5 beers and accompanied food. This event will be limited to 50 people. 100% of the profit from the event goes to local charities on the Island. We look forward to welcoming you, and attracting 2,500 beer enthusiasts over the 3 days.
