Visitors will be invited to work their way through the beer list and have the chance to meet the brewers themselves, while also attending one of Gravity’s exclusive talks and tastings for free.

Andrew Barnett from Gravity Beer Festival orgnaisers Barney’s Beer, said: “It’s great to be back for another instalment after last year’ success. I think we’ve curated a great beer list covering many styles and types of breweries. And Summerhall is such a fantastic venue space, it really gives the festival its unique atmosphere.”
