Bootle’s Neptune Brewery to host beer school at Salt and Tar Festival

Bootle’s buzzing Salt and Tar is serving up something special for beer lovers this May Bank Holiday – and it comes with a serious hop hit.

As part of the Salt and Tar Fringe Festival, the venue will host a Beer School & Tasting Event on Sunday 26th May, giving guests the chance to discover the art of great brewing in the company of true experts.

The sessions will be led by award-winning beer writer and international judge Melissa Cole, joined by Julie O’Grady, co-owner of Bootle’s own Neptune Brewery – a rising star on the UK’s indie beer scene.

Attendees will enjoy a guided tasting of six of Neptune’s best-loved brews, each served as a half pint, with insights into beer styles, flavour profiles, brewing techniques, and perfect food pairings – all in a fun and relaxed setting.

Neptune, originally founded in Maghull in 2015 and now proudly based in Bootle, has become a hub for community, creativity and proper craft beer. Their larger brewery site is now known for hosting local events, live music, and bringing people together over a pint – or six.

Julie O’Grady said:

“We’re really excited to be teaming up with Salt and Tar – it’s a brilliant space that shares our passion for celebrating community and creativity. We’re looking forward to an event that’s not only informative, but loads of fun too.”

Melissa Cole added:

“It’s an absolute pleasure to help Neptune mark their 10th anniversary at such a vibrant local venue. Great beer deserves a proper celebration – and I can’t wait to share some stories, laughs and pints with everyone who comes along.”

Beer School Sessions – Sunday 26th May:
Session 1: 2pm start (doors open 1.30pm)
Session 2: 4pm start (doors open 3.30pm)

Tickets include six half-pint tasters and entry to the talk – limited spaces available so early booking is a must.
