Uppers & Downers, organised by Good Beer Hunting, takes place at Mick’s Garage in Hackney Wick on May 19th.

Uppers & Downers is a collaborative coffee beer series of events created by Good Beer Hunting’s Founder and Director Michael Kiser and World Barista Champion Stephen Morrissey.

With a focus on coffee as a specialty brewing and blending ingredient with origin, the event will feature two sessions

Confirmed breweries include: Beavertown, Boundary, Brew by Numbers, Cloudwater, CRATE, Fourpure, Fyne Ales, House Brewery, Magic Rock, Moor, Northern Monk, Siphon, Siren, The Five Points Brewing Company & Weird Beard.

Coffee roasters lined up to take part so far are: Artisan Roast, Caravan, Clifton Coffee, Dark Arts Coffee, Dark Woods,Has Bean, North Star, Or Coffee, Roasted Brown, Roundhill, Square Mile & The Roasting Shed.

Kiser said: “Bringing Uppers & Downers to London for the second time is both an incredible outreach and homecoming for us.

“We’ve had people from all over the world venture to Chicago for the fest, and because of that interest and awareness we’re now able to bring it to them, which creates a platform for local brewers and roasters to showcase their own beer and coffee cultures, and experiment through collaboration. And no place outside the States has been more important to us than the U.K.”

The event takes place between 11am-3pm and 4pm-8pm on Saturday the 19th of May at Mick’s Garage in East London’s Hackney Wick.
