The Craft Beer Tasting Fair

The aim of this initiative is to raise awareness of the craft beer produced in the city and the region and to disseminate its qualities and brewing methods. The programme of activities includes themed tastings in different establishments in the city, musical concerts and dance sessions.

Interactive and Digital Beer Tastings
Since December 1st, the beer from the kALEA Brewer's advent calendar has been tasted daily from our TV studio in Salzburg at 6:00 p.m. central european time. We are currently putting a lot of energy into making the tasting of the beers as exciting and informative as possible. That's why the brewers travel to Salzburg and the moderation is led by a beer blogger from the German-speaking beer scene every day. You can follow the shows all LIVE on our Youtube channel.
