Paul added: “This year we wanted to make the weekend feel even more special. With Black Lodge turning ten, we’ve expanded the food and drinks, added more space to explore, and included an extra session on the Friday so people can really take their time discovering everything on offer. The Craft Beer Expo is a celebration of independents, by the independents, and we can’t wait to share the full experience with the city.
