Overview

Earlier this year, the Ambarvale Hotel reopened with its own on-site microbrewery after a massive 12-month renovation. Since then, it has begun pumping out its own Pete's pacific ale and Woodhouse lager — and, to celebrate, it's hosting its first-ever beer festival.

Dubbed South West Beer Fest, it'll see 13 of the best breweries from around the country (and beyond) descend on the pub for one afternoon. Panhead Brewery, Six Strings, Stone & Wood, Feral, Willie the Boatman, Stockade, Hop Nation and Akasha are just some of the labels that'll be on site slinging their wares on Sunday, August 18.

While entry is free, you will need to purchase some (very reasonably priced) drink tokens. You can pre-purchase eight for $25, or snag eight on the day for $30.

As well as many, many beers, the pub will be serving up eats from Goodtime Burgers, El Topo Cantina and its own smoker, and there'll be live music from the Sweet Jelly Rolls from 2–5pm, followed by a DJ.

South West Beer Fest runs from midday–6pm.
