Only two days to go until StageCraft 2026 and we’ll be enjoying some of the best beer, cider and wine out there 🍻🍷🍎

As well as incredible food offerings from local legends and (I knew I’d left something out the video 🤦‍♂️)

A lot of thought goes into ensuring we have a great mix of breweries covering all styles… many not regularly seen in Reading. So come chat, drink, enjoy… and forget about all the rubbish things happening in the world for a few hours 🙂.

And…..

…. as this video was being edited news in from the wonderful that they’ll be bringing another festival exclusive 🎉🎉🎉. A fruited barrel aged sour lager… wow! 🥳

We’re so excited to welcome you all!

🍻 A proper shoutout to one of Reading’s best beer events…

StageCraft Festival is back at South Street Arts Centre, Reading on 24th & 25th April (NEXT WEEK)! 🎉

What started as a brilliant idea has quickly become a must-attend weekend - bringing together some of the best independent breweries in the UK (and beyond), all under one roof.

We’re talking the likes of Siren, Elusive, Double-Barrelled, Beak, GlassHouse, Two Flints… and plenty more absolute heavy hitters pouring across the sessions. 👀

Add in top-tier street food from FINK & Fornoza Pizza, plus wine, cider and a lovely festival glass to take home - it’s a proper all-rounder.

⚠️ Saturday daytime is already SOLD OUT
🎟 Limited tickets remain for Friday + Saturday evening

Some of Team Nag’s will be down there on the Saturday soaking it all in, so if you spot us, come say hello. 👋

If you like good beer and good people, this one’s a no-brainer.
