Craft Beer Day - The Gold Coast Way

Overview

Keen on a trip to the Gold Coast, but short on an excuse to do so? If heading to the beach isn't reason enough, then maybe enjoying a few brews is.

That's the aim of the game at Craft Beer Day — The Gold Coast Way, aka the tourist hotspot's take on everyone's favourite drinking trend. The details are simple: converge upon RSL Club Southport, try over 20 different beers from local brewers, and relish the combination of coastal vibes and craft beverages.

Okay, there's more to the event than that, with beer appreciation classes also on offer, complete with your own glasses to take home with you. Local legend and triple j Unearthed star Matt Armitage will provide a few afternoon tunes, while the likes of Black Hops, Burleigh Brewing, Byron Bay Brewery, Matilda Bay, Cricketers Arms, Fortitude, Calibre, Holgate and Green Beacon have the booze side of things covered. When it comes to ways to spend a Sunday, this sounds like bliss.
