It was a tough pandemic for breweries - but if Liverpool Craft Beer Expo was anything to go by, then things are starting to look up.
Drinkers have been pouring into Liverpool’s Black Lodge Brewery this weekend for this year’s festival, which showcased drinks from breweries across the UK and as far afield as Ukraine.
Last year’s event was held mid-pandemic and marked the Mersey beer industry’s return to live events after more than a year of enforced closures.
