January 2008 Beer Festivals -- looking for a guide?

"Beers of the world, unite!"
The UNOB slogan

Any January 2008 Beer Festivals guide should reflect on happier times ahead. Cool beers with good friends on sun-drenched terraces.

Some bright spark coined the phrase Winter Beer Festival and now they are springing up everywhere. It's unfair to wait until summer before getting tanked in public: the UNOB agrees one hundred per cent!

Fortunately, a global guide allows us to add Beer Festivals from hotter climes. So pack your toothbrush and extra-large trousers and jet off to a hotspot to down a cold one!

As we discover more and more festivals, or receive updated information, we'll amend our January 2008 Beer Festivals calendar.
