Camden Town Brewery Tank Party returns to Escape to Freight Island this month

After a successful debut tour last year, Camden Town Brewery were wowed by the response lager lovers up and down the country had to their fresh tank beer. So, by popular demand, they are bringing back our Tank Party Tour and this year, it’s bigger than ever.

This summer, Camden Town Brewery is packing up their iconic London Tank Party and taking it on tour to not five, but SIX, cities across the UK. As well as stopping at Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool and Bristol, they are bringing the fresh taste of Camden to our Geordie friends in Newcastle before returning to the Home of Hells in London for the grand finale.

If you haven’t already heard, the Tank Party events bring the freshest Unfiltered Hells Lager directly from the original brewery in Camden to the tastebuds of lager lovers across the UK. Poured straight from the tanks for ultimate freshness, they will be serving up 135HL of beer ( 23,000 pints!) throughout the national tour.

If you’re wondering what that means for your local city, that’s thousands of pints being poured at our Tank Party venues – you’ll need a fair few pals to help carry those back to the table… And the brewery are not stopping there, as they will also be taking over the taps to pour pints of Pale Ale and Off Menu IPA too, so there’s plenty to go around even if lager’s not your thing.

But a Camden party isn’t complete until there is some tasty food and fresh entertainment to go alongside that delicious tank beer. They will be serving up the best street food each city has to offer, to pair perfectly with your pint(s). To give you a flavour of what the Manchester-based foodies can expect, there will be Carnival supplying the tastiest meat dishes fresh from the flame, NYC-style pizza from Voodoo Rays, zingy Mexican plates from Madre Tacos and so much more.

After you’ve explored the menu, there will also be a host of creative workshops and activities to make your Tank Party experience extra special. Be sure to bring your dancing shoes too, as the brewery have recruited the best local DJs and live acts and even brass bands to bring all the good vibes (all day long).

Holly Gibson, Head of Brand Activations & Experiences at Camden Town Brewery, said,“After taking Tank Party across the country for the very first time last year, we were overwhelmed by the response and can’t wait to get back on the road for the 2022 Tank Party Tour. Working for a brewery, we get the awesome experience of drinking straight from the brewery tanks, the freshest beer you’ll ever try. That’s one of the reasons we started Tank Party 10 years ago, inviting Camden fans to share this experience with us by enjoying the freshest Unfiltered Hells direct from the tanks.”
