Hoppy St George's Day - A Beer Blessing

Join us on April 23rd at 6pm at St Mary’s Church, Charlbury for a one-of-a-kind celebration bringing together community, tradition, and a good pint! Our local pubs—The Bell, The Bull, The Rose and Crown, and The Three Horseshoes—have each donated a specially chosen beer to be blessed by the vicar in a special ceremony.

For just £5, attendees can enjoy a half-pint taster of each blessed brew, right there in the churchyard. After the tasting, the vicar will lead a lively processional through Charlbury, stopping at each of the participating pubs where guests can enjoy a full pour, mingle, and vote for their favourite holy hop.

This celebration, marking the spirit of St George’s Day, offers a chance to come together in good company and raise a glass to community, heritage, and the best of local brewing.
