Come 2019, Brisbane will welcome Stone & Wood to town in a major way, with the brewery opening up its own site and tasting room on Bridge Street in Fortitude Valley. Can't wait that long? It's also hitting up its new spot on Saturday, November 24 — and hosting the Stone & Wood Backyard Invitational.
A one-day brew fest running from 12–4pm, this shindig will showcase both S&W tipples and those from other breweries and distillers — complete with tastings, of course. The lineup will also include masterclasses and forums, plus live tunes. One of the highlights, other than just beer in general, will be a chat about food and drink themes hosted by Ale of a Time's Luke Robertson.
The lineup of participating parties is yet to be revealed, but you can sign-up for more details and ticket notifications. When tix go on sale, they'll cost $60 + booking fee, with a tasting glass, tastings from all the breweries and access to all of the talks included in the price.
While the event celebrates S&W's ten years in the beer business, it's spreading the love, with profits going to its Ingrained Foundation.
