Manchester breweries will rally together and host a brewtap to raise money for the families and victims of the Manchester bombing.

Hosted by Beer Nouveau's Steve Dunkley, the event will take place in the brewery on North Western Street, and other brewers are donating some of their best barrels for the cause.

Taking place on Friday June 9 from 4pm to 10.30pm, the beer festival will serve keg, cask, cans and bottles - with all the profits being donated to those affected by the attack.

So far the response has been 'phenomenal', says Dunkley.

"Breweries small and large from near and far are contacting us to donate beer."

"From new and small places like Rivington, Stubborn Mule and Torrside, to larger and more established ones like Marble and Budvar, there's definitely going to be a lot of beer for everyone of all tastes.

"We've also been offered lots of bottles, cans and merchandise, so we're going to look at doing an auction on the night to raise more money for the victims and their families... the response really has been truly humbling."

"So join us on June 9th while we show just why our city is and always will be united. And spread the word. It’s time to show the world what Manchester’s all about."

Hops not Hate takes place at Beer Nouveau's brewery at 75 North Western Street on Friday, June 9 from 4pm to 10.30pm. Register your place for free at Eventbrite, and for more information visit their Facebook event page here.
