Three limited-edition sets of 13 mint beer mats promoting the 49th Sheffield Steel City Beer Festival (SCBF49) are to be auctioned on eBay. On one side of each mat is the SCBF49 logo, with the reverse carrying the sponsor. The first set went live on 15th August: two other sets will follow at monthly intervals: search eBay using SCBF49.
There are 75,000 SCBF49 beer mats available. Over the next few months, these will be distributed over Sheffield, the surrounding area and wider afield. However, a full set is very unlikely to be seen in one place at any one time.
The sponsors are:
- Breweries: Abbeydale, Ashover, Blue Bee, Bradfield, Chantry, Ossett, Peak, Tapped, Thornbridge and Triple Point
- Non-breweries: Abel Magnets, MKM Builders Merchant and Reyt Good Kitchens
Profits from the eBay sales will go to the official SCBF49 charity, Sheffield Children’s Hospital. The money raised will contribute to life-saving equipment, research and treatment for thousands of children and also help to create a comfortable, engaging environment for patients.
The festival will be held at Kelham Island Industrial Museum from 15-18 October.
