Who doesn't want to spend the day celebrating beer, wine, food trucks and local music?

Overview

Let's take a moment to celebrate two of the greatest natural wonders on the planet. Without the female flowers of the hop plant — known to you and me as hops — we wouldn't have beer. Without the fruit that blossoms on winding vines, we wouldn't have wine.

Actually, let's take a day to show them some love, plus food trucks and Brisbane bands too. At the Hops & Vines Festival at the Shaftson Hotel, drinking, eating and listening to local music is the thing to do.

Craft beer brewers including Green Beacon, Stone & Wood and Newstead Brewing will provide the yeasty goodness, while wineries such as Tin Shed, Wirra Wirra and Oyster Bay will serve up their squished grape best. Feast on the Bone Lorry, Gourmet Hotdogz, the Shaftson's own pizza and more mouth-watering delights between beverages, and enjoy the sounds of Tyrone Noonan Band, Ty Fader, Mason Rack, The Haydon Hack Infusion and Willy Angelo as you're digesting all the tastiness. Entry costs $10, and includes two free samples of top tipples, as well as a souvenir wine glass to use throughout the day.
