“There is more to beer than drinking, and Sheffield's thriving independent scene is a proud example of that”
There a plans for a beer museum in Sheffield.
And now, residents across the city, from beer-lovers to publicans, are being asked to submit their ideas to shape how the museum will look.
It is hoped the museum will celebrate Sheffield’s brewing heritage, and the role it played in the city’s story.
The team behind the plans will be at the Steel City Beer and Cider Festival at Kelham Island Museum from Wednesday, October 21 to Saturday, October 24 where they will be asking for feedback on the idea.
A survey is also available on their website here.
As the ‘Real Ale Capital of the World’, Sheffield has a lot to be proud of when it comes to beer, with brilliant independent pubs and breweries.
George Brown, director of Sheffield Beer Museum, said: “There is more to beer than drinking, and Sheffield's thriving independent scene is a proud example of that.
"It's why we're asking the city first. Before we decide anything, we want to hear what people here want to see."
