Beers, snacks, music and football mark the 4th edition of Beer Ato
The Beer Ato festival returns on July 3rd and 4th to celebrate beer culture. The meeting point will once again be Browers Beato, at Unicorn Factory Lisboa – Beato Innovation District.
The public will be able to choose from around 75 beers from 10 national microbreweries, enjoying a varied selection of snacks and a program that includes DJ sets, workshops and broadcasts of football matches. Admission is free.
This edition features the breweries Dois Corvos, Musa, Praxis, Rima, Lispoa, Fermentage, Hopsin Brewery, Bah! and Canil, whose brands join the beers of The Brewers Company, the festival's organizer.
The public will also be able to access the interior of Browers Beato, where the factory producing Browers beers is located. This year, the brand will present Browers Atlantic Hoppy Lager. This limited edition beer has tropical aromas of mango and guava, and owes its distinctive character to the American hops that came from across the Atlantic Ocean to create it. On the palate, it stands out for its hoppy bitterness which, combined with the fruity notes that complement it, gives this beer great refreshment.
To accompany the beer experience, there are several traditional snacks, with a diverse offering designed for all tastes, including the already famous Cachorrinhos do Beato (Beato's Little Hot Dogs), Brioche and Pulled Pork, Crispy Onion Rings with lime mayonnaise, Bifanas (pork sandwiches), and savory snacks such as Suckling Pig Rissoles, and Beef and Spinach Croquettes.
Visitors can also enjoy good music, with the musical program curated by CTL – Cultural Trend Lisbon. Performances include A Velha Batista and Mafalda Nunes on Friday, and Leilah Accioly, Hermanas Sisters and Hause Plants on Saturday.
It is also on the last day of Beer Ato (the 4th), at 4:00 PM, that the centenary of Topázio and Onyx beers will be celebrated, a special moment that will include the presence of their representatives who will share the history and evolution of the brands. Following this, at 5:00 PM, there will be a beer and food pairing workshop , led by a beer sommelier , with a tasting of three beers accompanied by three snacks. Registration for this workshop can be done with the Browers Beato staff on site.
The Beer Ato festival also includes an area dedicated to football fans, with a giant screen installed inside Browers Beato that will broadcast a Round of 32 match on Friday at 7:00 pm, and a Round of 16 match on Saturday at 6:00 pm.
