Lamma Island Beer Fest Announces December 13-14, 2025 Dates

The first Lamma Island Beer Fest promises to be a spectacular two-day event celebrating craft beer and community, right next to Power Station Beach. The island’s own Yardley Brothers will be hosting, and the fest will feature a massive tap list of nearly 100 brews from local legends like Heroes Beer Co and Black Kite across three sessions. In addition to showcasing a wide range of brews, there will be live music, admission for all ages, and the premiere of Yardley Brothers’ Heliogazer Milkshake IPA.

A press release from Yardley Brothers disclosed that sessions will run on the Saturday from 1-4pm and 5-8pm, and on the Sunday from 1-4pm. A range  of breweries, including Black Kite, Breer, Deadman, Heroes Beer Co, Hong Kong Beer Co, Howong  Brewing, Life or Death Seltzers, as well as hosts Yardley Brothers, will be pouring a minimum of 4  unique beers each per session for attendees to try. As well, there will be non-alcoholic options and  snacks available through Restaurant 80. Each session costs $120 for advance tickets or $150 on  the door and an all-session pass is available for $288, through yardleybrothers.hk. Each ticket  includes a free Festival glass to take home as well as one free beer. Additional beer tokens will be  available for purchase on site. 

The festival will feature live music, including local favourites Lamma Blues Collective, who will be  playing the evening session on the Saturday. Yardley Brothers Founder Luke Yardley says, “I’ve  been a Lamma resident for many years and since the early days of homebrewing here, I’ve looked  forward to hosting festivals here and the space at Restaurant 80 is perfect for our first foray. I’m  anticipating a great weekend for beer lovers and those merely inquisitive about craft beer.” 

Heroes co-founder and head brewer Chris Wong, notes that he’s excited about the family nature of  the day for attendees, “We’re looking forward to bringing hEROES to Lamma Beer Fest with our  favorite brews – it’s the perfect excuse to escape the city and unleash your inner hero by the beach.  As a brewer and a dad, I love a good family‑friendly festival, but I’m actually looking forward to not  bringing my son this time, so I can soak in the sun and be 100% focused on pouring you beers in  our very creative ways – see you there!” 

Yardley Brothers will be debuting a brand-new Milkshake India Pale Ale at the festival, Heliogazer, which promises to be fun and flavourful, as well as a range of classic crowd pleasers, some more  recent favourites, and housemade Lychee Lemonade. Other Breweries are still finalising their  lineups, but there will be an exciting range with over 100 beers available across the two days! Head  Brewer Phil Rankmore from Hong Kong Beer Co promises, “We are super excited to be bringing our  beers to Lamma for the Lamma Beer Fest. We’ll be serving some new releases alongside some  crowd favourites and can’t wait to share a beer with locals, visitors and fellow beer lovers.”
