This blog post is long overdue, but we didn’t want to miss the chance to give our local bearded friends a shout out. Better late than never eh?!
Back at the end of April, Bristlr had the privilege of sponsoring a mash up between Liverpool’s Liverbeards and Manchester’s Great Man Beards, in the great city of Manchester. And what a fine bunch of gents they were! It’s not every day one gets to hang out with an exclusively bearded group of gentlemen; both John and I were in attendance and I must admit it was rather a treat being the only lady among all. the. beards. (there’s got to be a joke in there somewhere)!
Not only did we get to enjoy the company of like-minded, bearded folk, but we also got a grand old tour of some of Manchester’s finest drinking establishments, from Kosmonaut to The Marble Arch. Visiting sound venues and sampling a selection of weird and wonderful craft brews is pretty standard fair for these folk. So, if you’d like to join either of these exceptional communities on their get-togethers, Great Man Beards next meet on June 20th and Liverbeards on June 30th.
Beards up!
