December is lurking just around the corner, and as festive drinks and matching takeaway cups begin to take over the menus of Bedminster's favourite cafes, the C-word is on the tip of everyone’s tongues.
It’s Christmas! And Bedminster is the place to be when it comes to getting in the festive spirit. With Christmas lighting set to get Bedminster Parade, East Street and North Street sparkling with all things merry and bright from Monday 14 November, the 12 Drinks of Bedminster trail comes at the perfect time to get locals and Bristolians from across the city out and exploring South Bristol’s very own winter wonderland.
Uniting Bedminster’s bustling bar scene and best restaurants is the 12 Drinks of Bedminster - the brand new trail for the festive season organised by the faces behind this year’s popular Bedminster Beer Trail. For a chance to discover Bedminster and the fantastic independent businesses which are its pride and joy, visitors to the area can complete the 12 Drinks of Bedminster trail throughout the month of December.
Participants can hop between 17 of Bedminster’s best restaurants, wine bars, microbreweries, pubs and bottle shops, having a drink and collecting a stamp from 12 of them to complete their stamp card, which can be collected from all participating venues.
With this event running from Thursday 1 December until Saturday 31 December, participants are encouraged to make the festive fun last by completing the 12 Drinks of Bedminster over the course of the month.
Plus, it’s not just beer on offer! Why not try something new this winter from twelve of Bedminster’s best watering holes, from local craft cider to organic, all-natural wines, cocktails or a tantalising whiskey highball - Bedminster really does have it all. Non-alcoholic drinks are also included, meaning the 12 Drinks of Bedminster can be fun for all preferences!
And the best part is (beyond finding your next favourite hotspot south of the river), once you’ve handed in your stamp card - complete with all 12 stamps - back into one of the participating venues, is that you will be entered into a big prize draw, with every venue offering a prize each!
Organiser and Co-Founder of Alpha Bottle Shop and Tap, Mike Fenlon, said:
"We're really excited to be able to bring back our popular Bedminster beer trail for a second time during the most wonderful time of the year! Bedminster is renowned for its fantastic independent bar and hospitality scene, and there’s no better time to celebrate it than during the Christmas season."
"We hope that our brand new event, the 12 Drinks of Bedminster, encourages not only locals but visitors from across the city to explore our thriving part of Bristol throughout the entire month of December!”
