Sourfest

Overview

Sour beers can be divisive for some beers drinkers but they've undeniably been having a real moment over the past five years. A love-hate beverage if there ever was one, these refreshing fruity ales have built a legion of hardcore fans. And if you consider yourself a disciple of the tart brew, there's only one place you should be on Saturday, February 18 and that's Public House Petersham for the grand return of Sourfest.

Batch Brewing Co and the Stanmore Road bar have pulled together an all-star lineup of sour beers for the occasion, with Batch contributing eight unique sours alongside some less-funky palate cleaners. The outdoor guest bar that will feature a carefully curated tap list featuring wild and woolly beers from a host of Australian and international breweries.

And the team at Wayward Brewing Co — the masterminds behind the raspberry Berliner Weisse and limited-time sours like last year's Red Rush Berry beer — have whipped up a special beer that will be available exclusively at Sourfest.

The Public House's usual range of burgers, pizzas and pub mains will all be on hand for when you get peckish between beers.

Entry is free but if you're really eager you can guarantee your spot by reserving a table.
