Calling all beer lovers: Brookie Fest, a three-day beer fest bringing together the ace breweries dotted around Brookvale on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, is back for its third year. This seriously fun shindig kicks off on Friday, February 13, and runs until Sunday, February 15 with Brookvale’s best breweries, distillers and eateries – including Bucketty's Brewing Co, Freshwater Brewing Company, Manly Spirits Co, Dad & Dave's Brewing and more – all getting in on the action – and you should, too.
There will be lots of smashable ice-cold beers and live bands performing throughout the festival, but we’re big fans of the wacky entertainment. W're talking about dachshund racing (yep, those sausage dogs are set to battle it out), skating demos, a chilli eating contest, and the ever-popular Esky races. Got little ones? Bring them along on Sunday for kids’ karaoke, balloons and hair braiding.
Brookie Fest coincides with the launch of The Brookie Trail – which celebrates the best of this hop-scented ‘burb. Participating breweries include 7th Day Brewery, Dad & Dave’s, Bucketty’s, Manly Spirits, Goodradigbee, Noble Craft, Freshwater Brewing and Sale Pepe, with each venue bringing its own flavour and signature Brookie energy.
