Bières Sans Frontières
Beers from around the world

Foreign beer bars at the Great British Beer Festival Foreign beer bars at the Great British Beer Festival

Bières Sans Frontières (BSF) Bars at GBBF continue to provide a showcase for the best beers from around the world, including beers from Germany, Belgium, Italy, USA, Czech Republic and The Netherlands.

Bières Sans Frontières history at the festival

Bières Sans Frontières has grown in size over the years and has been able to introduce many new beers to the British market. We usually feature beers that aren't easy to find in the UK and we were the first to sell cask-conditioned beer from America and Italy.

New Foreign breweries face many of the same problems as new British breweries of trying to break into an already crowded market which in some cases is overwhelmingly dominated by just a few big producers and you will find some exciting new brews on offer this year.

Bars

There are three bars within BSF: the Belgian and Dutch Bar, The German and Czech Bar which is sponsored by Budweiser Budvar and the USA and Rest of the World Bar which is sponsored by Sierra Nevada.

Make sure you pay us a visit and treat your taste buds to a new experience, whether you want to taste what real German beer is like or want to sample some of the hoppy US beers we're sure to have something for everyone.

Foreign beer tutored tastings

Tickets are also available for the tutored tastings at the festival, if you'd like to come along to tastings which will feature beers from overseas then Life on the Hop and The Best from Belgium are the ideal choice.
