Beer Week
March 4th - 12th, 2023
Portsmouth Beer Week is about, above all else, a love of beer.
Established in 2006 by Ian and Sean of 2beerguys.com, this 9-day celebration of beer highlights some of the most loved places in the Seacoast. Centered around Portsmouth, NH, the organizers of Beer Week invite the local breweries, restaurants, bars, and distributors of the greater area to partner with them to share their love of the craft with the community.
Breweries and distilleries from the Maine, New Hampshire and Massachusetts are encouraged to work collaboratively in promoting all the events and new brews that keep beer-lovers coming back to the Seacoast time and time again!
Stay in touch by following @PortsBeerWeek, #PBW2023 #PBW23 and #NHBeer on twitter. Also see their website at portsmouthbeerweek.com!
