For the third year running, this crafty festival will return to the Inner West's calendar of hop-driven spring events, with the super cool region further entrenching itself as the craft brew capital of the city. Over the weekend, the grounds of the Royal Hotel Leichhardt will transform into an amber playground for beer enthusiasts, hosting ten breweries including local favourites Willie the Boatman, Young Henrys and Batch Brewing Co.
If you’re serious about getting across the best of the Inner West’s beers, we recommend stumping up $27 in advance in exchange for five tasting tickets and a take-home festival cup. There’ll also be a cocktail masterclass happening insdie the pub, while hermit crab racing, giant lawn games and table tennis comps rage outside on the corner of Leichhardt’s Norton and Carlisle Streets.
