Brew Down 2018

Overview

Three bars. Three brewing teams. Three evenings. One variety of beer. Throw them all together, add your enthusiasm for a good craft brew, a great place to drink it and the spirit of competition, and you've got a Brew Down going on.

Returning for the second year, Brew Down is a rather crafty addition to Brisbane beer lover's diaries — and not just because new craft beverages whipped up by The Scratch and Aether Brewing, Tippler's Tap and Brisbane Brewing Co., and The Mill on Constance and Semi-Pro will be on offer. No, it's particularly crafty because it's a great reason to get everyone hopping between venues to try the new tipples, and to watch the brewers battle for glory.

Taking over The Scratch on Friday, October 19, The Mill on Constance on Saturday, October 20 and Tippler's Tap on Sunday, October 21, the three days involve blind beer tastings, voting and various contests — all focused on mid-strength brews with an alcohol content under four percent. You can join in too, as long as you register your interest in advance. Or, you can simply go on a three-day pub crawl and enjoy the shenanigans.
