You loved the beers—now meet their maker. Cult Danish craft beer brewer Mikkeller‘s head honcho Mikkel Borg Bjergsø will be in town for a not-so-ordinary whirlwind tour together with beer shop The Great Beer Experiment.
The beer fest starts with Makan with Mikkeller (October 18, 7:30pm), a food and beer pairing dinner where Singapore-inspired dishes are paired with a selection of Mikkeller craft brews. The location is a secret and will only be revealed upon registration ($65).
Then it’s a healthy start to the following day with No Sweat, No Beer! (October 19, 9:50am), a gentle one-hour trek through the Bukit Timah wilderness. Participants meet at the bus stop outside Mayfair Gardens (2 Rifle Range Rd.) opposite King Albert Park for a ride on Beer Truck to the start of the trail. The event is free and open to all; just text 9385-1752 before 9am to confirm attendance.
After the walk, adjourn to The Great Beer Experiment for Meet the Gypsy, Eat His Dogs (October 19, 12:30pm), a casual day drinking session with Mikkel. Obviously, there will be Mikkeller beers on tap, plus sausages to go with. All are welcome.
