The Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular 2015
Melbourne's craft beer festival debuts in Sydney, bringing 120 one-off brews made from the likes of oysters and finger limes with it.
Overview
That's right, there's another beer festival in town. The Great Australasian Beer SpecTAPular is a Melbourne player making its Sydney debut. There is, of course, a diverse range of craft beers paired with food from local Sydney restaurants (including Three Blue Ducks, Veggie Patch, Mary’s and LP Meats), but what makes this event different is the whopping 120 brews created specifically for the event by local and international brewers.
“This year we have one-off beers being made including oysters, orange peel, coriander seeds, finger limes, peaches, cherries, truffles, chocolate, biscuits, split peas, pineapple, coconut, vodka and a beer which will taste like banoffee pie," GABS co-organiser Steve Jeffares says.
The standard way to get through all this bounty is with a 'tasting paddle' of five tokens for $10. This will get you five 85ml tasters and 1/60th of the way through the beer offering at this spirited new festival.
