Murray's American Beer Month Festival
Head north for a month of US-themed brews and food.
Overview
Every July, two things happen. The US commemorates a date that makes film fans think about invading extra-terrestrials, and Murray's Craft Brewing Co on the New South Wales north coast throws a month-long celebration of American brews and food — aka Murray's American Beer Month Festival.
Beverage and burger lovers keen on a two-hour weekend trip to Port Stephens will find plenty of both on the agenda, including themed tipples aplenty and meals inspired Elvis. Sip on one of eight brews, including a blood orange IPA, and snack on culinary specials. Yes, an Elvis burg filled with bacon, peanut butter and jam is on the menu — as is a mac 'n' cheese pizza.
There'll also be free beer and wine tasting, brewery tours and US-centric entertainment every Sunday. Entry is free and the fest runs daily from 10am; however, if you're keen on jumping on the shuttle from Nelson Bay, that'll cost you $5 each way.
