Lager LoveFest with KAIJU!
Crush cans with some of the biggest lager fans in the business as you learn the ins and outs of this essential brew.
Overview
Beer comes in just about every imaginable flavour and formula these days, but you can't go wrong with the refreshing crispness of a good ol' lager. KAIJU! is one of the best in the business these days, with its lager brews twice taking home the top prize at the Australian International Beer Awards.
On Saturday, July 5, you're invited to attend a one-off masterclass with the crew for Lager LoveFest – a special event dedicated to the beer, which sometimes gets overlooked by craft brew fans for new-fangled tastes and styles. Held at KAIJU! Beer & Pizza in Huntingdale, champion brewer Nat Reeves will be joined by The Craft Pint's Will Ziebell, taking guests on a behind-the-taps exploration of all things lager.
"It's clean, it's technical and it's criminally underappreciated — but that's finally changing," says Reeves, whose Cerveza Crisp Lager recently took out Best Australian Style Lager at the 2025 Australian International Beer Awards. "There's a huge shift happening in what beer drinkers want. Lager's not a guilty pleasure anymore — it's the main event."
Tickets to this exclusive session are available for $20, and it comes with a pot of Cerveza Crisp Lager on arrival, plus a guided tasting of four lagers handpicked by Reeves and Ziebell. You'll also get a front-row seat to serious lager chat where nerding out about your go-to lager won't go amiss. Plus, you get ten percent off KAIJU!'s food menu throughout the event, so there's more to your session than just swigging back brews.
